Quotes

...the wettest spring on record, and as a result a significant part of our state’s corn and soybean crops have not yet been planted," Northey says. "It is critically important that farmers work with their crop insurance agent to understand all their planting options. If farmer does use prevented planting I encourage them to consider using a cover crop, building conservation practices or, better yet doing both, on their impacted land this year."
...being forced to choose between putting food on the table and other household necessities," said Bob Aiken, president and CEO of Feeding America. "Seniors have given us the America that we have today, we owe it to them to make sure that they have enough resources to fill their pantries and their prescriptions."
...Grand Challenge because finding asteroid threats, and having a plan for dealing with them, needs to be an all-hands-on-deck effort," Kalil said.
