Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns outlined a 2007 Farm Bill proposal to base payments on farm revenue instead of bumper crop outcomes, aiming to aid drought and disaster affected farmers.

Farm Rescue to Harvest Aid for Disabled North Dakota Farmers
North Dakota nonprofit Farm Rescue plans a fall harvest assist for six farmers after a second planting season. Founder Bill Gross says about 20 farmers may be helped this year, with 20 planting next year, using 8,000 acres seeded for 12 North Dakota farmers and others in South Dakota and Minnesota. The program relies on donations, volunteers, and a $120,000 Otto Bremer Foundation grant enabling expansion, with eligibility based on farm size and gross sales for Dakotan or nearby farmers within 50 miles of the state border.
