Hearing on Farm Bill Continues

The U.S. House Agriculture Committee will hold another farm bill hearing Wednesday morning, as Committee Chairman Mike Conaway announced the hearing, titled The Next Farm Bill: The Future of International Food Aid and Agricultural Development. Chairman Conaway said the committee has long planned to continue reviewing international food aid programs as it works toward developing the next farm bill.

Now many in agriculture continue efforts to make sure Congress is well aware of what is needed in the next Farm Bill, and that includes the cotton industry. President and CEO of the National Cotton Council, Dr. Gary Adams, talks about cotton’s priorities in the next Farm Bill.
