Issues: Agriculture and Food
Agriculture forms the backbone of our state's economy, particularly in Eastern North Carolina. Food commodities, aquaculture and forestry products contribute eighty-four billion dollars to the economy. From sweet potatoes and tobacco to hogs and poultry, we have a strong and rich history of farming and agriculture in our region. I will always fight for our North Carolina farmers and advance policies that promote local agriculture production.
