Help, not hinder producers was the message of Ag Secretary Sonny Perdue when he spoke at the Montana Farm Summit.

 

“We are, right now, at the USDA cataloguing and categorizing all the regulations that are impediments to your productive capacity. And we’re going to look at removing some of those, changing some of those so when you get out of your pickup every morning, you’re not afraid you’re violating some federal rule or regulation. Wouldn’t that be nice.”

 

Perdue did not specify which rules and regulations he was speaking about.
