(KEYC) - Minnesota House Speaker and republican governor candidate Lisa Demuth stopped in Sleepy Eye on Monday, touring Christensen Family Farms, one of the area’s largest pork producers to speak about difficulties the industry is facing and the role agriculture plays in the greater Minnesota ecosystem.“We welcome anyone to come down and have those conversations but when people take the initiative to come down and see us we certainly tell about the good work of our team of what we do here, of our noble purpose in rising pork and have a really productive conversation with the speaker today on those items,” said the farm’s Josh Anderson.Agriculture is a major part of Demuth’s platform: she’s broken with the Trump administration on the administration’s tariffs, especially those against Canada, a major agricultural trade partner.She emphasizes the importance of certainty to the ag industry, the ability to plan ahead as much as possible in a sector so sensitive to external factors.“I’ve had an opportunity to meet with farmers and producers in my area but again just the need to be able to do the work that they want to do, provide the food that is needed both for Minnesota and across the world when it comes to it and a guarantee there,” said Demuth during the visit.</div></body>
