Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue spoke about the school lunch program and the use of migrant farm workers to a group of agriculture and farm industry reporters at his agency’s headquarters, his first public appearance since his confirmation. He thanked the event’s sponsor, the National Association of Farm Broadcasting, for its role in helping communicate his agency’s message, and took a number of questions from reporters. He talked about several agriculture issues, including his recent decision to delay the implementation of the Obama administration’s toughened school lunch nutrition regulations, and an ongoing trade dispute with Canada over some dairy products. close
