Episode Synopsis

Agweek reporter Noah Fish speaks with Andrew Bower, sales director in the liquid logistics division at OEC Group. Bower sheds light on the high-stakes talks between the Pacific Maritime Association employer group and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, to agree on a new labor contract for over 22,000 workers at West Coast ports. Upper Midwest crops ship out through the West Coast and a strike could be a further detriment to already backed up supply chains.
