Minnesota Corn Growers Association Senior Public Policy Director Amanda Bilek will be watching the progress of the agriculture bills in the Minnesota House and Senate conference committees. There are small differences in funding between the bills. “One of the pieces we’re concerned about in the House bill is a proposal to increase the fertilizer tonnage fee.” Bilek says crop protection product language is also being closely watched. “We want to make sure we’re upholding EPA’s authority on the registration and review of crop protection products.”
