  • Opinion: Dissonance is USDA secretary’s stock in trade

    It's a head scratcher.  For unfathomable reasons USDA Secretary Sonny Perdue's connotative discourse has created self-inflicted wounds for the White House.There was Purdue's brain-fart on August 7 at a farm show in Minnesota.  With farmers facing record bankruptcies and dwindling profits due to President Trump’s trade war with China Purdue showed little empathy for the farmer's plight: “I had a farmer tell me this in Pennsylvania,” Perdue said.  “He said, ‘What do you call two farmers in a basement?’ I said ‘I don’t know, what do you call them?'” Perdue said the farmer said: “A whine cellar.” Needless to say, farmers were not amused. Or how about Purdue's unwillingness to acknowledge humanity's culpability in climate change.   There was this and this and this.  With that kind of track record it's not surprising that Purdue all but dismantled USDA's Economic Research Service.

For many years, Brazil failed to implement its obligation under the WTO to establish a TRQ for wheat.
