RECOGNIZING DANNY KORNEGAY
(Mr. ROUZER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. ROUZER. Mr. Speaker, this country is blessed with incredibly
talented and God-fearing families and individuals. One great example is
Danny Kornegay, a constituent and friend who was recently named the
2015 Swisher Sweets/Sunbelt Expo Southeastern Farmer of the Year.
Danny began farming 25 acres right after graduating high school and
during the past 45 years has grown his operation to more than 5,500
acres, producing tobacco, sweet potatoes, cotton, soybeans, wheat, and
peanuts. He also finishes about 8,000 to 10,000 head of hog per year.
My family and I have known Danny for many years. Farm families like
his prove agriculture is in very capable hands, and they are the reason
America continues to produce the best and safest food supply in the
world.
Danny's commitment to agriculture, our community, and our State is
unparalleled. I know his family and many friends are proud of him. In
fact, we are all proud of him.
