Mark McHargue, President of the Nebraska Farm Bureau, officially congratulated Rollins and her family, emphasizing the significant role she will play in representing agricultural interests at the federal level.
“Nebraska Farm Bureau and our nearly 57,000 member families congratulate Brooke Rollins and her family on her confirmation as the new Secretary of Agriculture. While the Secretary of Agriculture has many administrative responsibilities, the position’s most important function is to serve as agriculture’s ambassador within the federal government.
We have no doubt that Secretary Rollins is committed to the future of Nebraska’s farm and ranch families and look forward to working with her to help solidify and strengthen our position as food, fuel, and fiber producers for Nebraska, the United States, and the rest of the world. Let’s get to work!” stated McHargue.
The Nebraska Farm Bureau is a grassroots organization that plays a pivotal role in supporting the state's agricultural sector. It works diligently not only to support farm and ranch families but also to promote the broader interests of agriculture across Nebraska. This involves a variety of educational, service, and advocacy efforts aimed at fostering both rural and urban prosperity. The Bureau’s commitment underscores the importance of agriculture as a cornerstone of Nebraska’s economy.
As Secretary of Agriculture, Rollins is expected to tackle a range of critical issues facing the agricultural sector, from trade and economic challenges to innovations in farming technology and sustainable practices. Her role as an ambassador for agriculture will be crucial in shaping policies that affect the agricultural community both in Nebraska and nationwide.
