Mace Thornton, American Farm Bureau

A recent poll asked almost 2,000 registered voters their opinions on agriculture and sustainability. According to the survey, almost all respondents - no matter the political affiliation - supported sustainability, by one definition or another, and most believe agriculture and farming to be among the nation’s most sustainable sectors.

In this conversation, Mace Thornton, executive director of Communications for American Farm Bureau, discusses the survey results and why it’s good news for farmers and ranchers.
