ASA Submits Farm Bill Comments to USDA

ASA and other ag groups submitted joint comments on Farm Bill implementation to USDA Secretary Perdue last week, reiterating the programs included throughout all titles of the Farm Bill are critically important, particularly at a time of uncertainty in the ag and rural economy, and an uncertain trade environment. The letter also outlines the need for increased educational efforts on how different Farm Bill programs are changing and the choices that producers will be making, and encourages USDA to quickly move forward with all implementation.
