Hearings and an AgJobs presser

There is a House Ag Committee hearing going on right now on crop insurance,and tomorrow the Agriculture Committee is expected to look at the issue of food/produce safety again. Tomorrow afternoon in DC is an AgJobs press conference at 2 p.m; speakers include Sens. Dianne Feinstein, Larry Craig and industry speakers Maureen Torrey, Phil Glaize, Tom Nassif, Mike Gempler and Ella Vasquez.

With the staccato pace of hearings and press conferences, it goes without saying this is a big week for the farm bill and immigration reform.
