an instrumental leader in agriculture policy.

to serve as legislative director while Mr. Roberts was chairman.
  After years of hard work on Capitol Hill, Dale served as executive 
director of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association. Dale then became 
the USDA's chief of staff for all four Secretaries under President

being appointed executive vice president in 2018.
  Dale has maintained an exemplary reputation for decades. He will be

  Congratulations, Dale, on your successful career. Best wishes to you
