vital role in California agriculture through the designation of Farmworkers Day. <\/p>\n<p>Assembly Bill 2156 renames March 31 as \u2018Farmworkers Day\u2019, formerly Cesar Chavez Day, to acknowledge the commitment and contributions farmworkers make to sustain the state&#8217;s agricultural production. <\/p>\n<p>California Farm Bureau President Shannon Douglass says farmworkers are at the heart of every harvest, and their contributions deserve recognition.<\/p>\n<p>**The EPA released the long-awaited final Renewable Fuels Standard volume obligations for 2026 and 27, and U.S. ag groups responded positively. <\/p>\n<p>Renewable Fuels Association\u2019s Geoff Cooper says the final rule locks in the highest-ever renewable fuel volume obligations and provides clarity for farmers, ethanol producers, oil refiners, and fuel distributors.<\/p>\n<p>National Farmers Union president, Rob Larew says these increased targets for biodiesel and renewable diesel send a strong signal to the marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>**Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins announced new actions aimed at boosting the supply of American born, raised, and harvested beef by signing of a Memorandum of Understanding that strengthens coordination, cuts red tape, and delivers tangible support for America\u2019s farmers and ranchers.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement ensures more efficient, transparent and responsive grazing management on federal lands.<\/p>\n<p>Rollins says this sends a clear message: the Trump Administration is putting America\u2019s farmers and ranchers first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"California Farmworkers Day and Renewable Fuels Standard From the Ag Information Network, I\u2019m Bob Larson with your Agribusiness&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35712,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2975,112617,112619,27947,27463,112618,112616,25244,112620,112621,3015,7,9,8,217,40379,4818,24747,17535,4794,684,112622,14552,5551,18659,112623,45513,78692,112615,15856,8078,94369,18925,10585,225,25823,29224],"class_list":["post-253788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-california","tag-2975","tag-112617","tag-actions","tag-ag","tag-american","tag-announced","tag-awaited","tag-beef","tag-boosting","tag-born","tag-bureau","tag-california","tag-california-headlines","tag-california-news","tag-day","tag-efforts","tag-epa","tag-farm","tag-farmworkers","tag-final","tag-fuels","tag-harvested","tag-honor","tag-legislature","tag-long","tag-mou","tag-obligations","tag-raised","tag-recognize","tag-released","tag-renewable","tag-rollins","tag-secretary","tag-standard","tag-state","tag-supply","tag-volume"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=253788"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253788\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=253788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=253788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=253788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
