VERRATTI'S FARM BILL TESTIMONY

Yesterday seven members of House Committee on Agriculture gathered input for revisions to the Farm Bill from eight farmers — including Gasport's Jemery Verratti —who were selected by the panel to sort out what works from what isn't working in federal farm support and regulation. Enacted in 2008, current Farm Bill legislation expires this year.

The federal government has made a transcript of Jeremy's testimony available online. Download the PDF file here:
