It is no secret that China is a huge market for many of our agricultural goods. However, being a trading partner is much different than becoming dependent on foreign goods produced within our own borders.

Newhouse says there is bi-partisan support for this effort.

Newhouse speaks with Brad Young, in for Annie Frey, on the issue:
