House Ag Democrats weigh GOP farm bill offer

House Agriculture Committee Republicans offered a one-page farm bill proposal to Democrats that includes Democratic priorities such as nutrition and rural aid. The plan again rules out moving money from conservation or nutrition into commodity programs.

Democrats met on the proposal and said no counteroffer had been developed.

WHY IT MATTERS

Ongoing farm bill negotiations shape long-run US support programs but do not change near-term supply or demand for feed commodities.
