It’s been more than a month since the 2018 Farm Bill expired, and a new version has yet to see floor time in Congress. While work continues behind the scenes, speculation looms over the potential for an extension.
University of Missouri Extension Professor Dr. Scott Brown joined us Monday on Market Day Report with further perspective. In his discussion with RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender, Dr. Brown explained where Farm Bill discussions currently stand, his expectations of Congress going forward, differences in funding between the new legislation and its preceding legislation, and how the election of a new House speaker might impact the legislation process that could potentially delay the Farm Bill even further.
