After the briefing, Smith released the following statement. “By 2050, the world’s population is projected to reach ten billion people,” Smith said. “ARS’s research is crucial to finding ways to feed the world with finite resources. “The Third District is home to ARS’ Meat Animal Research Center (MARC), a world-renowned research leader in animal science having a meaningful and practical impact on the industry. For example, research conducted at MARC has improved food safety by strengthening our understanding of E. coli, enhanced animal health and welfare through research on respiratory diseases in cattle and sheep, and boosted production efficiency through efforts to increase the survival rate of newborn piglets. “On more than one occasion, I have had the opportunity to tour MARC and always come away inspired by the dedication of the ARS scientists and employees. In Congress, I will continue to promote the work conducted by MARC and ARS as vital to agriculture’s success.” Smith is the founder and co-chairman of the Modern Agriculture Caucus.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
