美国农业部10日两场总部活动:罗林斯与内政部长谈放牧计划,随后同退伍军人事务部长致敬退伍军人

美国农业部(USDA)11月10日向媒体发出预告:农业部长 Brooke Rollins 当天上午在位于华盛顿的农业部总部连办两场活动,先与内政部长 Doug Burgum 共同就农业部与内政部的放牧计划(Grazing Initiatives)举行记者会,随后主持致敬退伍军人活动,退伍军人事务部长 Doug Collins 与小企业管理局局长 Kelly Loeffler 出席。
记者会美东时间上午9时开始,地点在农业部总部 Whitten 大楼(1400 Jefferson Dr. SW, Washington, DC)。农业部今年6月已发布放牧指令,要求其下属的林业局向牧场主开放闲置与关闭的放牧地块、确保放牧面积不净减少,并设定到2028年在国家森林土地上恢复至少50万头月(head months)放牧量的目标。罗林斯此前表示,2026年已恢复约27.8万头月,165个闲置放牧地块的申请处理已经启动、目标明年1月1日前发放许可,另有800万美元放牧工作经费。美国牛群存栏目前处于75年来的低位,联邦土地放牧政策是农业部「牧场主优先」议程的核心一环。
致敬退伍军人活动美东时间上午10时开始,同样在 Whitten 大楼举行。罗林斯将介绍农业部的退伍军人工作,退伍军人事务部长 Doug Collins、小企业管理局局长 Kelly Loeffler 一同出席。农业部称,有意采访的媒体须事先向其新闻办公室登记。

USDA Hosts Two Headquarters Events on November 10: Rollins and Burgum on Grazing Initiatives, Then a Veterans Honor Event with Collins
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) issued a media advisory on November 10: Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins will host two events that morning at USDA headquarters in Washington — first, a joint press conference with Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum on USDA and DOI's Grazing Initiatives, followed by an event honoring veterans, attended by Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins and Small Business Administration Administrator Kelly Loeffler.
The press conference begins at 9:00 a.m. ET at the USDA Whitten Building (1400 Jefferson Dr. SW, Washington, DC). In June, USDA issued a grazing directive instructing its Forest Service to offer vacant and closed grazing allotments to ranchers and to ensure no net loss of livestock grazing on its allotment acres, setting a goal of restoring a minimum of 500,000 head months of grazing on National Forest land by 2028. Rollins has said about 278,000 head months were restored in 2026, that processing of applications for 165 vacant grazing allotments is under way with a goal of issuing permits by January 1, and that an additional $8 million in funding supports the grazing efforts. With the U.S. cattle herd at a 75-year low, grazing policy on federal lands is a core part of USDA's rancher-first agenda.
The veterans event begins at 10:00 a.m. ET, also at the Whitten Building. Rollins will discuss USDA veteran initiatives, joined by Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins and SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler. USDA said media interested in covering the events must RSVP to its press office.
