US - National Farmers Union (NFU) President Roger Johnson has commended President Obama’s 2015 Budget Proposal, noting its crucial investments for family farmers, ranchers and rural America.
“The president has demonstrated meaningful support for the men and women who grow this nation’s food, feed, fibre and fuel and the challenges they face daily,” said Mr Johnson.
“The dramatic changes fuelled by climate change are clearly one of the major hurdles facing America’s producers,” noted Mr Johnson.“Family farmers and ranchers across the US are already feeling the impact of increasing weather volatility, resulting in fewer workable field days, increased potential for soil erosion and increased crop insurance claims."Investments in clean energy and climate resilience, like the permanent extension of the renewable electricity production and investment tax credits, will create new opportunities for American businesses while mitigating our producers’ climate risk.”
美国——全国农场主联盟(NFU)主席罗杰·约翰逊(Roger Johnson)称赞奥巴马总统2015年的预算方案，指出其对家庭农场主、牧场主和美国乡村的关键投资。
“总统已经表明对这个国家的生产食物、饲料、纤维和燃料的男性和女性们富有深义的支持和他们所面临的挑战的帮助,”约翰逊说。“气候的巨大变化显然是美国的生产商面临的一个主要障碍,”约翰逊先生指出。“全美的家庭农场主和牧场主已经感觉到了不断增加的气候变化的影响，从而田间工作日减少，潜在水土流失和作物保险索赔增加。在清洁能源和气候变化上的投资，比如可再生电力生产扩大和投资税收抵免，将为美国企业创造新的机会，同时减轻我们的生产者受到的气候变化风险。”
