The head of the trade association representing crop pesticide makers says he believes the incoming Biden administration will honor science. Chris Novak, President and CEO of CropLife America, tells Brownfield he is optimistic about a new EPA administrator, “I’m a farm kid and I still have that eternal optimism. And as I look at the potential for a Biden administration what does give me encouragement was one of the themes that Vice President Biden campaigned on and that was science over fiction.”
Novak tells Brownfield it was clear, on the campaign trail, that Biden supported science to tackle the coronavirus pandemic and climate change but he expects that approach will also apply to crop management tools.
