Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation’s discussion on proposed national policy resolutions was brief on Friday, covering agricultural labor, Waters of the United States and endangered species. Minnesota Farm Bureau President Kevin Paap says the grey wolf is always an issue. “We’ll continue to be at the table to discuss.” Those resolutions will be submitted to American Farm Bureau Federation for consideration. Trade was not a resolution discussed at the meeting, but Paap says progress is still very important for farmers. “We’ve got good, solid Farm Bureau policy on trade already. We are hearing from members that the U.S. Mexico Canada Agreement needs to be ratified. Why would anyone want to do a trade agreement with us until we can get our two closest allies on board?”
