The House advanced the farm bill amid veto talk after rejecting an escalator clause in the target price system for cotton, wheat, and corn. The escalator would adjust target prices and could eliminate subsidies if costs rise, while critics warn of a multi billion dollar bill. The Senate has a higher set of targets in its version, with costs projected at seven billion annually or more.
