AFBF Statement on Chairwoman Stabenow’s Farm Bill Text

American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall commented today on Senate Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow's release of farm bill text.

"We're reviewing Chairwoman Stabenow's newly released 1,300 pages of farm bill text. It's unfortunate that only a few legislative working days remain for Congress to act, but Farm Bureau remains committed to working with elected officials on both sides of the aisle to achieve federal policy that improves the outlook for farmers and ranchers. Our members across the nation have been clear in calling for a new farm bill in 2024 that helps farmers hold on after farm income dropped 30% in two years. The hardworking women and men who grow the food, fiber and renewable fuel for our nation cannot afford to wait for good federal policy that helps them manage the day-to-day risks inherent in agriculture."
