Summary[edit]

Description

U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Secretary Sonny Perdue and retired football great and NFL Hall-of-Famer Marshall Faulk, talk about USDA’s role in the NFL’s Fuel Up to Play 60 program, and the importance of milk nutrition and physical fitness; the students talk about how they have encourage others to include physical activity in their lives, schools and community; all the while the Indianapolis Colts football players are training on the adjacent football fields, at the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center, in Indianapolis, IN, on August 8, 2017.

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue is on a five-state RV tour, featuring stops in five states: Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana; titled the “Back to Our Roots” Tour, he is gathering input on the 2018 Farm Bill and increasing rural prosperity, Aug. 3-8, 2017. Along the way, Perdue will meet with farmers, ranchers, foresters, producers, students, governors, Members of Congress, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) employees, and other stakeholders. This is the first of two RV tours the secretary will undertake this summer. “The ‘Back to our Roots’ Farm Bill and rural prosperity RV listening tour will allow us to hear directly from people in agriculture across the country, as well as our consumers – they are the ones on the front lines of American agriculture and they know best what the current issues are,” Perdue said. “USDA will be intimately involved as Congress deliberates and formulates the 2018 Farm Bill. We are committed to making the resources and the research available so that Congress can make good facts-based, data-driven decisions. It’s important to look at past practices to see what has worked and what has not worked, so that we create a farm bill for the future that will be embraced by American agriculture in 2018.” For social media purposes, Secretary Perdue’s Twitter account (@SecretarySonny) will be using the hashtag #BackToOurRoots.
