          RECOGNIZING THE NATIONAL GRAIN AND FEED ASSOCIATION

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
recognize the National Grain and Feed Association as they celebrate 125 
years of supporting every facet of the agricultural value chain.
  Established as one of the first industry-based arbitration systems in 
North America, NGFA has transformed American farmers' bounties into 
safe, nutrition, sustainable, and affordable human and animal food.
  The National Grain and Feed Association is a nonprofit trade 
association that serves more than 1,000 companies and 7,500 facilities. 
They continue to advocate for grain, feed, and processing interests of 
the complete value chain and promote the competitiveness of the United 
States of America.
  In order to recognize this great achievement, House Agriculture 
Committee Chairman   David Scott and I introduced a resolution 
celebrating the 125th anniversary celebrating the efforts of the NGFA 
in transforming the American farmer's bounty.
