BIG NEWS for #AmericanAgriculture: @EPA advanced several pesticide registration actions that will provide farmers with access to new and innovative crop protection tools.

CLA appreciates @epaleezeldin, EPA leadership, and the career scientists whose work helped move these applications through the agency's rigorous, science-based review process.

[U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith @SenHydeSmith]

Two highly contagious viruses are posing a serious threat to farm-raised catfish, and Mississippi’s $196 million catfish industry cannot afford to wait. @SenatorWicker and I joined our colleagues in urging the USDA to act now to prevent these viruses from reaching U.S. waters and devastating one of our most important agricultural industries.

Winning 💪

[Governor Tate Reeves @tatereeves]

NPL Construction is investing nearly $2 million and creating 40 jobs in Greenwood.

@tatereeves @supertalk Nice work, Gulf Coast and State Leadership! This has ramifications for businesses throughout MS and the Gulf South! @tatereeves

Senator Hyde-Smith has been leading the charge to give US Farmers are fighting chance on the world stage. BACA is one of those rare pieces of legislation that simultaneously reduces the net outlay of govt. resources while unleashing the productivity of the targeted industry.

[Delta Strong @MSDeltaStrong]

Commissioner, I do not know
the context, but want to echo your comments that MS leads the nation in irrigation efficiency and a lot of dedicated public servants have made that possible.

[Andy Gipson for MS @AndyGipsonforMS]

I was disappointed to hear Gerard on Supertalk say that agricultural use of water is inefficient. Farmers in Mississippi are professionals in terms of water use. In addition, use of water to produce our food can hardly be labeled an inefficiency. No farmers, no food. No water, no food. As a reminder - you cannot eat data.

[U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith @SenHydeSmith]

I’m pushing for additional FY27 funding for two critical projects in Mississippi – the Yazoo Backwater Pumps and Arkabutla Dam repairs. Yesterday, @USACEHQ confirmed both projects can put more dollars to work. Failure is not an option, and I will keep fighting to ensure these projects are done right.

Amen

[Delbert Hosemann @DelbertHosemann]

We are devastated by the loss of Dan Fordice, husband, father, and business man who may be best known for creating Warrior Bonfire to help military veterans survive the effects of war and provide them hope for the future.

“Pain shared is pain divided, joy shared is joy multiplied.”

We mourn his loss with Ann Clare, his children, his brother Hunter, and so many family and friends. A painful loss of a good man.

What a great honor for Archie Tucker, a lion in agriculture and a Delta native son who stayed and made a difference. Thanks @msstate for this recognition!

[Mississippi State @msstate]

Approximately 4,000 Bulldogs will receive Mississippi State degrees and certificates this month during commencement ceremonies!

America grows the best cotton in the world, so let’s wear it! I was thrilled to hear @SecRollins say she’s with us on the Buying American Cotton Act. BACA would create tax credits to incentivize American companies to use American-grown cotton, keeping jobs here, strengthening rural communities, and putting American farmers first. Over 80 industry groups, farm bureaus, and major retailers are already on board. Let’s get it done!

Thank you Senator for this support of Mississippi producers!

[U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith @SenHydeSmith]

I’m always glad to have candid conversations with the Trump administration about the challenges our farmers are facing and hear their commitment to fixing them. Today I raised concerns about delays in conservation programs in Mississippi, and Secretary Rollins confirmed that USDA is working to fill critical staffing gaps and streamline the process so producers can get the support they need.

Thank you Senator! @SenHydeSmith

[U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith @SenHydeSmith]

Rural hospitals in states like Mississippi are being squeezed by a Medicare wage index that undercuts reimbursement, making it harder to keep doctors, specialists, and critical services in our communities. Today, I asked Secretary Kennedy if we can count on the administration to work with us in Congress to fix it.

[U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith @SenHydeSmith]

Had a great meeting with leaders from the National Cotton Council to discuss my legislation, the Buying American Cotton Act. American farmers grow the finest cotton in the world, and it’s time our policies reflect that. My bill would create real incentives for American companies to source domestically, keeping dollars in our economy and supporting the hardworking people who produce cotton in Mississippi and across the Cotton Belt. I look forward to working with my colleagues as we advance this legislation.

@magnoliatribune I am in the Delta and only familiar with the one in Tunica. Your article says they have sprung up all over the State and curious to know where those are besides Tunica? Thanks
