Looking Ahead
Nothing Seems To Discourage Larry McClendon These Days
Tommy Horton
McClendon On The Move
Larry McClendon has always prided himself for being cool under pressure and being able to make the right decision.
Those skills were put to the test numerous times in 2008 when he was chairman of the National Cotton Council. On one of his many trips to Washington, he and an industry contingent were calling on House Agriculture Committee chairman Collin Peterson (D-Minn.).
After a brief meeting, the question became whether the industry group would get on board with Peterson's plan for the Farm Bill or go home. It was an "all or nothing gamble" that confronted McClendon, California producer John Pucheu and Texas producer Woody Anderson.
