Order of Business.
I endorse what Senator Bradford had to say about careers in agriculture. If young people have been fed for 20 years on a daily diet of complaint that things in agriculture are terrible, it is not unreasonable that they walk away from the industry. I went into farming when I was 21 years old. One has enthusiasm at that age and does not even think about the broader policy issues. One just gets on and does the work. It would be terrible to see that enthusiasm killed.
