A new alliance has been formed to help today's US food production system build consumer trust.  The US Farmers and Ranchers Alliance will also will assist American farmers and ranchers in operating in an economic, sustainable and responsible manner. 

There are 23 national farm and food organizations in this new effort.  They agreed to form a long term, coordinated campaign to tell the true story of agriculture.  This announcement was made during the National Association of Farm Broadcasters Annual Meeting in Kansas City. 

The inaugural USFRA Executive Committee will be chaird by Bob Sstallman, President of the American Farm Bureau. Others elected by their peers include the United Soybean Board's Phil Bradshaw as vice chairman; National Corn Growers Association's Bart Schott as secretary; National Pork Board's Dale Norton as treasurer; and United Egg Producer's Gene Gregory and National Cattlemen's Beef Association's Forrest Roberts as at-large members.
