A Wisconsin Farm Bureau leader says Congress needs to finish the farm bill soon.
Government Relations Director Tyler Wenzlaff tells Brownfield farmers are facing different issues than what they had at the start of the last farm bill. “You have record high inflation, rising supply costs, global unrest within Ukraine, and a lot of this has changed the ag economy and we really need Congress to step up and do their job to make sure we have the resources we need.”
Wenzlaff says having the five-year farm bill cycle and four-year election cycle in the same year is not good.
