Drought relief compromise strengthens farmers loans plan
Washington settled a drought relief dispute with a bipartisan compromise. A new 20 million loan fund expands the existing 45 million for agricultural rehabilitation and crop security, plus extends aid for seed feed and fertilizer. The agreement shapes relief via loans secured by crop liens rather than charity, guiding future budget adjustments and veteran bonus proposals.
