Conaway Secures House Farm Bill Passage
LUBBOCK, Texas – National Sorghum Producers appreciates the hard work Chairman Conaway and the House Agriculture Committee have done to create a strong farm bill for rural America. H.R. 2 gives farmers the stability they need to continue to provide the safest, most affordable food supply in the world while contributing to America’s energy independence.
“We especially thank Chairman Conaway and staff for their work in putting together a strong bill for sorghum farmers, particularly given the limited budget resources available,” NSP Chairman Don Bloss said.
NSP fully supports a timely passage of the farm bill, and continues to support the work being done in the Senate. NSP will continue to work with lawmakers to reach the ultimate goal of having a bill in place by the end of the year. Due to the current farm economy and trade uncertainty, sorghum producers need the strong, reliable policy provided in the farm bill.
