Former House Agriculture Committee Chairman Collin Peterson (D-Minn.) isn’t letting any moss grow under his feet following his reelection defeat in November. He has inked a consulting deal with Combest, Sell & Associates, an ag-focused consulting firm founded by another former House Ag Committee chairman, Larry Combest of Texas.

In this week’s DC Signal to Noise Podcast, Peterson joins Pro Farmer’s Jim Wiesemeyer, John Herath of Farm Journal and Combest - Sell co-founder Tom Sell to look at the future of the ag committee and the mountain of issues it faces from carbon capture and equal access to coronavirus assistance and much more.
