We also want farmers to have the security of knowing the seeds they ’ re planting this season , including those enhanced through biotechnology , will be available in the future . For more than two decades now , we ’ ve seen increased production , reduced pesticide use and restored soil with the help of improved seeds . But misleading biotech labeling initiatives at the state level continue to threaten these vital tools . It ’ s time for Congress to put a stop to this confusion and protect the freedom of all Americans to choose safe and affordable food .
Of course , not all spring “ planting ” at AFBF is in the policy field . Some of the most important work we do is in connecting farmers and ranchers from across the country and helping them develop as leaders in their businesses and communities . This spring , we ’ re expanding our new Patriot Project , which pairs military veterans just getting started in agriculture with experienced farmers who provide guidance and insight along the way . We can think of no better way to thank our heroes than by helping them succeed as they return home and take up farming and ranching . It ’ s our hope that the program will build meaningful relationships that last a lifetime .
As American farmers and ranchers , we approach every spring with hope and faith that the seeds we sow will fall on good ground and yield a fruitful crop . Like our members across the country , we at Farm Bureau are planting lots of seeds this spring . We sow the desires of our farmers and ranchers every day . Sowing seeds about agriculture and our beliefs requires determination and faithfulness . Let us pray that the seeds we sow fall on ears that hear — and are moved to act ! ( From the Parable of the Sower , Matthew 13:9 —“ Who hath ears to hear , let him hear .”)
We will nurture those seeds and pray for good growing conditions , so that we can harvest successful outcomes by the hundredfold for all farmers and ranchers .
