As we head into the Thanksgiving holidays Congressman Porter had an opportunity to sit down with Dr. Roger Cryan, Chief Economist of the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF). The primary topic of conversation was AFBF's Annual Thanksgiving Dinner Survey, which looks at the cost of the average Thanksgiving meal from year to year. Other discussion topics included some of the history behind our Thanksgiving meal selections, rising food costs, the 2023 Farm Bill and the work that AFBF does to support American farmers and ranchers.
