Mark Peele is a cotton grower and president of the South Central
Georgia Gin Company. He joined On Second Thought on the line from
Berrien County, Georgia to talk about the outlook — and mindset —
of Georgia farmers. Jeffrey Harvey, director of the Georgia Farm
Bureau's Public Policy Department, also joined the conversation
from GPB's studio in Macon.
