Not good enough
"We are exremely disappointed."
While the specialty crop industry has tried to work within the subcommittee process, Robert Guenther of United Fresh told me tonight that more tangible results and real dollars are needed for f/v priorities. Guenther said United and other specialty crop alliance members are looking at all options, including amendments at the full House Agriculture Committee and beyond that, on the House floor. And, of course, the Senate farm bill remains to take shape. More later on this interview with the chief lobbyist for United Fresh.

IMHO, this is where the rubber meets the road. Take a look at your opponents and start funding the campaigns of their opposite numbers. Real $ for real action. It's what the program crop interests do and do very well. The gloves are off. F & V is coming to the table without teeth or a plan. Showing up at a gun fight with a sword.
