SEPTEMBER 28, 2012 -- Last week, President Obama and Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, submitted to the American Farm Bureau their positions on relevant agriculture issues. The Farm Bureau does this every election cycle to both the Democratic and Republican candidates, but with the economic issues surrounding this election, especially energy, this proved to be a very interesting Q&A.
Of course, with the Grange being a nonpartisan organization, I’m not allowed to speak for or against any one candidate. However, I can provide you with compelling resources to help you make up your own mind. Below is the link to the submitted answers from both candidates. Read it and see what you think.
