Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler J Harper has publicly supported the Trump Administration’s recent $12 billion farm aid package. In a statement, Harper emphasized the importance of this financial assistance for farmers in Georgia and across the country.

“President Trump continues to deliver critical support for American farmers and producers,” said Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler J Harper. “The Trump Administration’s farm aid package will ensure that Georgia farm families can get back on their feet and make it to next season, when President Trump’s farmer first policies will take full effect – revitalizing the ag economy and restoring prosperity to rural America. We have worked closely with Secretary Rollins to get this package across the finish line, and I’m grateful that Georgia farmers will soon be receiving this much-needed relief.”

Earlier in the day, Harper spoke at the annual Georgia Farm Bureau Convention where he discussed details of the forthcoming announcement regarding federal assistance.
