Coalition Forces Back Administration on Farm Program Fight
A coalition of farm organizations halted administration plans to send a new farm bill to the House floor. The June 2 committee vote substituted a coalition plank for an admin proposal, igniting a stalemate as Ag Committee Chairman Poage postponed further action while both sides seek a revised substitute before session end.

Farm bill debate focuses on subsidy ceiling and parity loans
The Agriculture Committee and Administration pursue a subsidy ceiling of 110000 per crop though leaders threaten 20000 or 10000 floors. A key vote in April backed 80 percent parity for wheat loans, prompting coalition pressure as Poage returns and fights over domestic market protections intensify.
