# With no standalone farm bill in sight, budget reconciliation may be the only path forward - Agweek | #1 source for agriculture news, farming, markets

> Former House Agriculture Committee leader Collin Peterson said on June 10, 2025 that including farm bill programs in a budget reconciliation bill may be the only way to fund them, since there is no movement on a standalone farm bill after two extensions of the 2018 law. Congress is likely to pass a reconciliation bill that includes farm programs.

## Why it matters

The commentary signals that farm program funding is likely to proceed through reconciliation, which supports continued government backing for producers but does not by itself move feed grain or meal prices.
