Wildfires burned more than 900,000 acres home to many cattle in western Nebraska. Sen. Pete Ricketts says he's concerned the disaster could delay rebuilding the U.S. cattle herd and says USDA programs should have flexibility and innovation to support producers through the disaster. Plus, Iowa farmer and American Soybean Association vice president Dave Walton shares his takeaways from the EPA's recently released biofuel blending rules and Jenna Stanton with the U.S. Cattlemen's Association discusses USDA's push for labeling transparency.Want to receive Newsmakers in your inbox every week?
