Illinois ag leaders outline farm bill urgency

Three Illinois ag leaders are expressing optimism that the 2023 Farm Bill will get done in a timely manner.

Illinois Farm Bureau President Rich Guebert tells Brownfield many legislators seem to understand the importance of an on-time farm bill.  

“The 2018 Farm Bill is not going to do what agriculture needs it to do at present day. Things have changed so dramatically, whether it’s with trade, with prices, you name it.”

Illinois Corn Marketing Board Chairman Jim Reed shares his optimism.
