Senate Agriculture Committee Ranking Member John Boozman is blasting USDA, saying it is paying more attention to the Biden Administration’s political goals than its day-to-day responsibilities. In a letter sent to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, Boozman cited USDA’s failed launch of its new export sales reporting system. With the system shut down for three weeks, the Arkansas senator said price discovery has been limited at the beginning of the marketing year.
