Our friends at Farm Foundation are offering another one of their free conversations on agricultural policy in this country … this time tackling the issue of the connection between obesity, food and the nation’s agricultural policy on Tuesday, November 9 from 9-11 am at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. :
What’s the Connection?
Presenters will be:
* Jon Doggett, Vice President of Public Policy for the National Corn Growers Association;
* Mary Muth, Director of the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Program at RTI International; and
