π FUEL RELIEF FOR FARMERS! Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen Talks Agriculture, Pork Production & Prop 12! π·
Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen was among the first governors in the nation to take action on diesel fuel tax relief for farmers, livestock producers, and agricultural truck drivers during harvest. Now, he's sharing what prompted that decision, how the relief works, and why standing up for agriculture matters.
But Governor Jim Pillen isn't just a policymaker. He's a lifelong pork producer and veterinarian who grew up raising pigs outdoors alongside his father before building a successful pork production business.
π₯ In this exclusive interview with Rachel Fishback of Pork Industry News, Governor Pillen discusses fuel relief, rising farm expenses, his strong stance on California's Proposition 12, and the incredible advancements in pig care, hog barn technology, and modern pork production.
He also shares what inspired him to run for governor, why family farm succession planning is so important, and his message to pork producers during National Pork Month.
From raising pigs outdoors to leading the state of Nebraska, Governor Jim Pillen brings a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing American agriculture.
