Warming trend in midwest toward Bergland as ag secretary
Midwest reaction to Minnesota Congressman Robert Bergland being named secretary of agriculture ranges from elation to caution. Supporters cite his farm experience and House agriculture committee work, while critics fear increased government role and price supports. Bergland has ties to NFO and Farmers Union and owns a Roseau, Minnesota farm. Sixth district ally Berkley Bedell praises him as a working farmer who will foster better farm legislation.
