Changes in food labels this year

You'll notice new food labels this year. US Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack talked about that with KCCI.






The implementaion of the new Child Nutrition Act will also have the USDA busy this year. That program will invest millions in school breakfast and lunch programs. Vilsack also wants to help rural farmers, since the farming population is aging and very few young people want to enter the business now because of the risks and the amount of effort it takes to do it well.
