In today’s episode, catch up with the latest agricultural policy news, including what the American Farm Bureau Federation—the nation’s largest general farm organization—will be advocating for this year. Additionally, we feature an interview discussing the first-ever sustainability framework released by a poultry organization and what lessons other agricultural sectors can take from it.

This week’s top ag news includes updates on confirmation hearings for President Trump’s cabinet, along with reactions from agricultural groups. We also cover the recent scrutiny of the Panama Canal, the first outbreak of the H5N1 strain in poultry and the key issues the Farm Bureau will support or oppose in its lobbying efforts.

Today’s interview we are hearing from the U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Poultry & Eggs (US-RSPE) Executive Director Ryan Bennett at the recent International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE).
