Farm Bill Proposals and Legislative Action in the 110th Congress (open access)

Farm Bill Proposals and Legislative Action in the 110th Congress

Many provisions of the current omnibus farm bill, the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002, expire in 2007. Without new legislation, notably in the area of farm commodity and income support programs, permanent statutes will take effect. Most of these statutes were enacted decades ago and are no longer compatible with current national economic objectives, global trading rules, and federal budgetary of regulatory policies. This report follows major legislation relating to existing farm bill statues introduced in the House and Senate in the 110th Congress.
