Last week I spent a couple of days in Sacramento, mainly to cover the highly contentious marathon hearing at the California Department of Food and Agriculture over milk pricing. In the top photo, University of California-Davis ag economist Richard Sexton prepares to give a presentation. In the others, the administrative panel hears from witnesses as people in the audience listen and take notes.
While there, I also visited the offices of the California Cattlemen's Association, whose officials talked about the legislative session that has just ended. In the photos below, Executive Vice President Billy Gatlin (left) and Vice President of Government Relations Justin Oldfield talk strategy, and Oldfield and Gatlin are seen working in their offices. A special thanks goes to Stevie Ipsen at the CCA for arranging the meet-up on short notice.
