Sen. John Boozman said he is working toward passing a comprehensive farm bill by year-end and argued that current policy relies on data more than a decade old.
He described financial pressure on producers, including some selling equipment or scaling back operations, and called for updated policies that provide greater certainty.
A new farm bill could change support and risk-management programs, affecting producers’ financial resilience and planting decisions. No specific provisions or market-moving changes have been finalized.
