🚜🌾 Happy National Farmers Day!

Today, we celebrate the hardworking farmers who put in the long hours, weather every season, and care for the land that provides for us all. Their dedication not only keeps Texas agriculture strong; it helps protect our soil, water and natural resources for generations to come.

To the farmers across the Lone Star State, thank you for all you do to keep Texas growing! 🌱

USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins just announced another $300 MILLION for regenerative agriculture.

That brings USDA’s total investment to $1 BILLION.

Already, 15,000 American farmers have been approved for grants to transition to regenerative practices.
