In need of deeper pockets 💸
Mar 21, 2023📃 Approximately 400 national, regional, and state agricultural organizations have asked in a letter to Congress that they provide sufficient budgetary resources for the 2023 farm bill, citing the effects of the China trade war, devastating natural disasters, supply chain disruptions, non-tariff trade barriers, and rising production costs on the agricultural sector.
💰 Besides the commodity programs, the organizations have asked for adequate funding for crop insurance, rural development, research, and voluntary conservation incentives.
