We’re taking a look at the role the National Council of Farm Cooperatives has in informing policy for the next Farm Bill. This is council President Chuck Connor's ninth Farm Bill.

Connor also outlines the Food and Ag Climate Alliance, climate-smart agriculture, operating costs for cooperatives, and the farm credit situation.
