Minnesota Rep. Hagedorn Falsely Claims No American Goes to Sleep Hungry

[Benton]

If anything, we overproduce food in this country (crops that are grown based off previous need, but get destroyed because there isn't a domestic or foreign market for them ins subsequent years) and over regulate to make sure we have staple crops. If you ask anyone who is a member of a state FB or associated with ag 4H, they take a lot of pride in our country's ability to produce food and stability of our markets compared to food producers globally.

Personally, I'd like to see less subsidies for soy beans and similar crops so that farmers would move into expanding industrial hemp and other non traditional crops that could lower manufacturing and research costs.
