The ranking member of the U.S. Senate Ag Committee says the Republican farm bill framework provides the safety net and risk management tools farmers need. Senator John Boozman of Arkansastells Brownfield the safety nets currently in place aren’t working. “This is a generational situation,” he says. “We’ve got input cost through the roof and if you look at the charts, commodity prices have fallen and sadly are predicted to continue that trend.”
He says the farm bill needs a reset.
