WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD NEWS) — More than 300 ag groups are calling for swift advancement of the Farm Bill as House leadership prepares for a vote on the legislation next week.
Christy Seyfert, President and CEO of the Farm Credit Council, joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to discuss the coalition letter and the outlook for the bill’s progress.
In her interview with RFD News, Seyfert explained the message behind the letter sent to lawmakers and why ag groups are urging action. She also addressed the need for updated agricultural policies as many farmers continue to navigate challenges in today’s ag economy.
Finally, Seyfert discussed potential provisions in the Farm Bill that could benefit producers in the years ahead, the expected next steps as leadership moves toward a vote, and whether she is hopeful about its advancement.
