No significant changes in farm bill
Dan Griswold describes the latest from the House Agriculture Committee:
Sadly, the new 2007 farm bill looks a lot like the old 2002 farm bill that is due to expire on September 30. No real changes were made in the Title 1 commodity programs that lavish production subsidies on farmers who grow corn, wheat, cotton, and other program crops. Trade barriers remain against imports of lower-priced sugar, rice, and dairy products.
