“We bring something to the table. Agriculture is a huge economic engine in this part of the country.”
- Former Rep. Collin Peterson
The Midwest Council on Agriculture exists to harness the power of a multi-state coalition of farmers, ranchers, agribusinesses, commodity groups, and agricultural lenders united with common goals and to advocate for strong agriculture and economic policy promoting long-term sustainability of the ag industry in the Midwest region.
