Farm bill signals shift to lower farm program funding
The House passed a four year farm bill 205 to 203, aligning with a Senate measure and signaling lower federal spending on farm programs. The plan removes parity mandates for dairy and sets price supports for dairy, wheat, corn, rice and sugar, while expanding conservation, research and rural development programs.
