“Sen. Mike Johanns’ career of public service and his commitment and dedication to representing the interests of Nebraska farmers and ranchers is greatly appreciated. Sen. Johanns was the first candidate for governor to receive Nebraska Farm Bureau’s “Friend of Agriculture” designation, and he has carried that commitment to agriculture through his time as Secretary of Agriculture and in representing Nebraska in the U. S. Senate. We applaud him for his dedication and service to all Nebraskans,” said Steve Nelson, Nebraska Farm Bureau president.
