The nomination of Nebraska Department of Agriculture Director Greg Ibach for an administrative position in the USDA will go before the Senate Agriculture Committee this week.
Ibach was nominated last month by the Trump administration to become the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s undersecretary for marketing and regulatory programs.
The Senate Ag Committee confirmation hearing for Ibach is now scheduled for this Thursday morning at 8:30 Central time.
Ibach, who maintains a farm near Sumner, has been Nebraska’s Director of Agriculture since 2005.
