Agriculture groups made their pitch on policy to Republican candidate for President Donald Trump, after sitting down two months ago with the Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
The American Soybean Association said the groups used the meeting to highlight “several big, broad policy areas as examples of matters deserving attention during the election, including agricultural trade, food safety, farm bill and crop insurance programs, ag labor, infrastructure and the importance of science-based regulatory policy.”
The groups met with the Clinton Campaign in June.
Other organizations represented in the meeting include the American Farm Bureau Federation, commodity groups representing soybeans, corn, cotton and wheat, and the National Farmers Union, among others.
