U.S. Senator David Perdue (R-GA), a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, meets with the Colquitt County Farm Bureau and local leaders in the agriculture industry.

“Agriculture is Georgia’s number one industry and a major reason why our state continues to be the best state in the country in which to do business,” said Senator Perdue. “It was great to hear directly from Colquitt County farmers and producers about their needs and the challenges they face. Their input is critical as we continue working to make our agriculture industry safer, stronger, and more successful.”

“We appreciate Senator Perdue taking the time out of his busy schedule to come and talk to Colquitt County farmers one-on-one about issues that are important to our country,” said Stanley Bass, President of the Colquitt County Farm Bureau. “Agriculture is the largest industry in Colquitt County and it impacts all of its citizens.”
