The Ranking Member of the Senate Ag Committee says the Republican-drafted framework of the farm bill puts farmers first. Senator John Boozman of Arkansas says the framework released Tuesday modernizes the farm safety net, facilitates the expansion of access to overseas markets, makes significant investments in ag research, but also makes historic investments in conservation and protects nutrition programs.
Craig Meeker, a Kansas farmer and chairman of the National Sorghum Producers says it contains what farmers need.
