I expect that we are going to have to be able to prove sustainability and climate sensitivity for the commodities that we sell into the global market in the future. Let's get going.

Let's not study something to death to the point where we don't get the job done.

My first suggestion is follow the law, and a previous speaker talked about this Administration.

The last thing that we should be doing in agriculture is making a claim about climate that is not valid.

Set some goals that I know they can achieve, whether it is by doing the practices they are doing right now, or carbon capture.

I think it has been pretty clear that I think that we don't yet have good measurement tools.

What better way to sink carbon than to keep it in the wood, right? I mean, we recognize that forests can be such a big part of this.

If we really believe that we have an emerging crisis in climate, why shouldn't we basically be early adopters and get out there and get it done?

Let's build a pipeline from FFA. One of the growing youth groups is really Future Farmers of America.

One of the looming crises in America is land ownership and absentee land ownership.

People who are going to buy into carbon markets, they want certainty.

Let's not just try and think about those past inequities and how we fixed those problems. Let's think about how we can move forward to make farming opportunities available to everyone.

Farmers don't want to be paperwork people. They want to get out and farm.

We have to give the industry certainty.

I am just urging you all not to reduce local staff.

I think that it is the single most important part of our recommendations in forestry that we make sure that we have the seedstock, we make sure that we are building resiliency.

Title IX of the farm bill has been critical in supporting research and development of agricultural and forestry feedstocks used to produce bioenergy.

We should use the existing programs.
