To further protect the U.S. livestock industry from the threat posed by highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza, @USDA is sharing a number of actions that we are taking with our federal partners to help us get ahead of this disease and limit its spread. usda.gov/media/press-re…
Many thanks to everyone who came to the listening session in Nevada, Iowa to share their experience and expertise on the challenges that farmers and rural communities face, from corporate consolidation to undue repair restrictions.

In Iowa, @linakhanFTC speaks about market concentration at Iowa Farmers Union @NFUDC event opposing $3.6 billion sale Iowa Fertilizer Co sale to Koch Industries.
🧵This Saturday, Iowa farmers will join state legislators for a community meeting to share with FTC Chair, @linakhanFTC, what the acquisition of Iowa Fertilizer Company by Koch Industries means for farmers and the future of rural communities.
Everyone deserves safe and dependable food and this will provide further assurances to American consumers that they’re getting the best product available.

Together, we can grow a fair and sustainable future. From Farmers Union families to yours, happy National Ag Day!
Our 122nd Anniversary National Farmers Union Convention is a wrap. Delegates from all around the country debated and voted on the direction for our advocacy in the coming year, including six special orders of business that further emphasize our stances.
We're proud to support @USDA efforts to bring fairness to livestock markets. National Farmers Union will continue to push for better markets and a more even playing field for all family farmers and ranchers. agri-pulse.com/articles/20738…
At our convention last year, our members specifically called out this merger as an example of harmful consolidation in the marketplace. Thank you @FTC for standing up for farmers, ranchers, workers, and consumers. apnews.com/article/kroger…
Thank you @SenatorTester and @ChuckGrassley for once again standing up for family farmers and ranchers, not the meatpacking monopolies.

.@NFUDC advocates on behalf of more than 230,000 farm families, and their annual convention is an important part of the grassroots movement. This week, the MN delegation is in Scottsdale to debate and vote on NFU policy for the year, and elect NFU’s President and Vice President.
Ten county presidents who demonstrated outstanding leadership within their communities received the @NFUDC Leadership Achievement Award.
Our membership is passionate about organizing and advocating for the wellbeing and future vitality of Minnesota's family farms and rural communities. And much of that tireless work is being honored at the 122nd Annual @NFUDC Convention in Scottsdale, Arizona! 🧵
