Iowa coalition works on environmental issues
Aaron Putze is the executive director of the Coalition to Support Iowa’s Farmers (CSIF). He also serves on the board of directors of the Animal Agriculture Alliance. Putze says as CSIF’s work on expansion of the state’s livestock industry slowed over the past few months due to reduced profitability in the industry, the group was able to focus more on assisting farmers with environmental matters, including a project called the Green Farmstead Program. And he says they are also making sure farmers understand what is expected of them as far as EPA regulations are concerned.
