SCFBA is disappointed that today’s aid package did not include specialty crop growers, who continue to face serious economic pressures. We stand ready to work with the Administration and Congress to ensure they receive needed support. 🔗Our statement: https://t.co/EqgRXSlTqA

Florida farmers help feed America, but specialty crop producers are routinely left out of USDA economic aid. Together with @RepKatCammack & our Florida colleagues, I’m urging USDA to ensure our growers get the same access to direct payments and support as row-crop producers.👇

This week, @RepMoolenaar and 33 other lawmakers called on @USDA @SecRollins to include specialty crops in any potential economic aid package. In support of the letter, SCFBA echoed their call: "Any economic aid package designed for agriculture must include specialty crops."
