U. S. Secretary of Agriculture, Mike Johanns was on hand here in Nashville today at the Cattle Industry Convention.

He’s been on the road since announcing the administration farm bill proposal. I was able to obtain a copy of his speech this morning if you would like to listen.

I was in the media room posting onto Beef Board Meeting.com so I’m afraid I can’t summarize what he had to say.
