Exploring feed and grain producer priorities in upcoming infrastructure policy

Infrastructure – namely, the ability to quickly and efficiently transport commodities and other goods – has been a competitive advantage for a number of U.S. industries, especially agriculture. From our inland waterways to our extensive network of highways, the U.S. farmer, livestock producer and agribusiness professional has benefited for centuries from the best overall logistics infrastructure in the world.Unfortunately, in recent decades the country has failed to keep pace with maintaining and modernizing our infrastructure, and unless something changes soon, that long-held competitive advantage could quickly become a relative disadvantage.In this episode we talk with Max Fisher, Vice President of Economics and Government Relations for the National Grain and Feed Association, about the state of infrastructure policy proposals, and what lies ahead with a new Congress and a new administration.This episode of Feedstuffs In Focus is sponsored by United Animal Health, a leader in animal health and nutrition.
