Working Together in the New Adminstration on Food Issues
January 9th, 2009 By Aaron French
It’s going to be a crowded field for those facing issues in the science of food, farming, ecology, and nutrition in the
new administration. As Angie Tagtow points out, the incoming Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack, and the new
Secretary of Health and Human Services, Tom Daschle, are going to be forced to work closely together to form important
policy for the years ahead.
But they are not alone – a handful of other high-profile thinkers will also be creating important policy decisions that
will have implications for food, and it will be anyone’s guess how Obama will manage this diverse stable of talent.
