“Rep. Glenn Thompson, who represents Pennsylvania’s most rural district, also chairs the House Agriculture Subcommittee on Conservation, Energy & Forestry. In this weeks’ Agri-Pulse Open Mic, the GOP Congressman talks about the 2012 farm bill that’s expected to move forward in the House Agriculture Committee on July 11 and how he hopes to strengthen voluntary, conservation programs in what will be his first farm bill. Thompson, who describes farmers as “the original environmentalists” also calls for a smaller, leaner and more effective Environmental Protection Agency, which he describes as currently “out of control.”…”
