Subject: RE: Next 5 years in ag



n.c.iowa

nd here is what I would ask them, what can they do, or are they doing to help the farmer spread the word that modern ag is not against the American consumer, or any of our export customers.

the modern consumer is just bombarded by half truths and people with alternate agendas, it's no wonder that farmers have lost the trust that we once had.    we even bicker amongst ourselves about gmo vs non gmo, organic vs non organic, the use of growth promotants in livestock production, on and on. with no clear consenus.  but our customers have to know that the American farmer, for the most part does his job with them in mind.      one of the reasons the epa and the other regulatory agencies have made such great inroads into the ag sector in the last few years is that there is a perception that modern ag is nothing more than a planet savaging, greed driven, horde.       some of this perception is directly related to the use of their products and services. i'd be interested in their response to that.
