The National Farmers Union said farmers have raised concerns about high input costs, weak margins, market consolidation, and trade uncertainty during the election season. The organization urged incoming lawmakers to pass a Farm Bill, strengthen the farm safety net, and improve competition in agricultural markets.
A stronger safety net could support farm income and future production, while policies addressing consolidation and trade uncertainty may influence input costs and market access. The statement does not announce a specific policy change, so near-term commodity price effects are limited.
