Podcast: U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance to tell story, have dialogue on food

In this podcast, Andy Jobman, a farmer from Gothenburg and member of the Nebraska Corn Growers Association, talks about the Farmers & Ranchers Alliance and how the organization aims to create a dialog on food and agriculture across the country.

Known as USFRA, the alliance is a joint project of dozens of agricultural organizations across the country, including the corn industry via the National Corn Growers Association. Yet it's much bigger than corn. It includes groups affiliated with egg, beef, dairy, wheat, soybean, cotton, sugar, sheep, peanut, fresh produce, pork, rice, poultry and more.

"It’s an incredible mix of about 50 organizations who came together to help lead a discussion on where food comes from and the future of food," Jobman said.
