WASHINGTON – National Farmers Union (NFU) President Rob Larew today made the following statement on the Farm Bill: 

 “Our priority for family farmers and ranchers remains steadfast: Congress must pass a strong, comprehensive five-year Farm Bill before year’s end. A Farm Bill provides the certainty and stability farmers need, including a strengthened safety net, disaster assistance, robust investments in conservation and measures to help farmers compete more effectively. While significant work has been done by the House and Senate Agriculture Committees, leaders at the highest levels in both chambers must now make passing a strong, comprehensive five-year Farm Bill their top priority before the year ends.”
