The NAFB Convention is underway and the Acting Secretary of Agriculture, Chuck Conner, started things off with remarks in a press conference. Here he’s being introduced by NAFB President, Pam Fretwell, WTAD/WKAN.

Acting Secretary Conner had a lot to say about the farm bill which is really the main issue the administration is working on right now. As we’ve heard before he spoke about the President vetoing legislation in its current form. I recorded his comments for you.

Of course I’m building an online photo album from the NAFB Convention which you can find on Flickr.

I want to thank NAFB for making my coverage of this year’s NAFB Convention possible!
