Max Armstrong looks at hot topics for the House Agriculture Committee – hunger and food insecurity, the status of African American Farmers and climate change. Those were outlined last week at the Ag Outlook Forum last week by the chair Rep. David Scott, D-Georgia. Also speaking at the Forum was Ranking Minority Member Glenn 'GT' Thompson, who says climate change is an issue but must favor pro-growth solutions.

Farm Progress America is a daily look at key issues in agriculture. It is produced and presented by Max Armstrong, veteran farm broadcaster and host of This Week in Agribusiness.
