WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD-TV) — The ag trade received a boost this week in the Senate, with Julie Callahan now confirmed as the U.S. chief agricultural negotiator. That position had been open since Doug McKalip left his post in the Biden administration.
Callahan is no stranger to agricultural trade and has been with the U.S. Trade Representative’s office since 2016. Growth Energy commended her confirmation, noting that Callahan has a strong command of the issues facing farmers and biofuel producers.
