House Agriculture Committee released a fact sheet on economic assistance in the current continuing resolution, modeled on Rep. Trent Kelly's FARM Act.
Texas A&M analysis estimates the aid will improve the Representative Farm ending cash position by nearly 20% by the end of 2025. Payment rates are estimates and may change once implemented.
Improved farm cash positions reduce pressure for distressed sales and support feed grain and oilseed production plans for 2025. The analysis is estimated and the effect on futures is small.
