American Farm Bureau President Bob Stallman says they’re urging Congress to approve Trade Promotion Authority for the President.  At this week’s annual convention he told me TPA is critical for passage of trade agreements like the Trans Pacific Partnership yet this year.

As good as TPP looks for U.S. agriculture Stallman admits there’s still some unfinished business with the EU.

Stallman expects the next agreement to pass after that will be T-TIP.
