What to Expect

November Midterm elections are rapidly approaching. While this could mean change for the U.S. in terms of policy and regulations, it also could have ramifications for the U.S. seed industry.​​​​​​​ This year’s election is especially important as we approach some key aspects of regulation — particularly the 2023 Farm Bill. With changes potentially in both the House and Senate, associations and companies alike might need to prepare different lobbying plans for the future. What do you, as a seed company need to be aware of? That’s what we’re hoping to tackle in our next Seed World Strategy Webinar on October 27.
