The Senate Agriculture Committee approved a farm bill on Sept. 16 that would delay by one year, to Oct.
1, 2028, the start of state cost-sharing for SNAP benefits. Current law starts state sharing on Oct.
1, 2027, and the bill has not passed the full Senate or become law.
The delay is a domestic food-assistance budget matter with no direct effect on feed grain, oilseed or livestock supply, demand or prices.
