  17. Ag Policy News No Secretary of Ag yet, Mr. Perdue has passed the Senate Ag Committee, but has yet to be voted on by the full Senate. The House and Senate Ag Committees have begun their exploratory hearings for the 2018 Farm Bill, but no firm policy declarations have been made. What little we have on ag policy comes from the President’s Executive Orders and the Budget.

  18. Ag-Related Executive Orders • March 31, 2017 • Presidential Executive Order on Establishing Enhanced Collection and Enforcement of Antidumping and Countervailing Duties and Violations of Trade and Customs Laws • Presidential Executive Order Regarding the Omnibus Report on Significant Trade Deficits • Feb. 28, 2017 • Presidential Executive Order on Restoring the Rule of Law, Federalism, and Economic Growth by Reviewing the "Waters of the United States" Rule • Jan. 23, 2017 • Presidential Memorandum Regarding Withdrawal of the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership Negotiations and Agreement
