November 8, 2024: Post-election – What’s Next for Agriculture?

Ag News Daily

In this week’s episode, we dive into post-election news impacting agriculture, as well as hear about international opportunities that led to the creation of 4-D Ag Fashion and 4-D Ag World, both serving dairy farmers and industry professionals in the United States. Top agricultural headlines this week include changes in the House and Senate Agriculture Committee memberships, reactions from agricultural organizations to the results of the election of Donald Trump to be the 47th President of the United States, and potential impacts on agricultural tariffs under the new administration. We also discuss the introduction of the FARM Act, aimed at easing financial pressures on farmers, as well as ongoing conversations surrounding the Farm Bill. With Congress expected to return to session next week, these issues will be top of mind for officials. In this week’s featured interview, we speak with Bram DeVries of 4-D Ag World and Elizabeth De Vries-Dykstra of 4-D Ag Fashion. They shared their experiences at the recent World Dairy Expo and discussed how their companies are serving both men and women in the dairy industry. Having immigrated to the U.S. and traveled extensively, they are bringing a global perspective to the dairy sector in the United States. As always, we also provide an ag market update, weather forecast, and crop harvest progress report.
