The Walt Disney Co. is betting big on Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam. Since 2015, Disney has given $400,648 to Florida Grown, a committee supporting Putnam, but has also donated $70,000 to a committee run by state Sen. Jack Latvala and $35,000 to a new committee set up by House Speaker Richard Corcoran. U.S. Sugar Corp. and Duke Energy have given to Putnam, Corcoran and Latvala’s committees,
