The National Association of Wheat Growers says bipartisan and bicameral legislation to expand agricultural export funding earlier this year will hopefully be incorporated into the upcoming farm bill.
“This strong showing early on I think sends a strong message that this is a key priority across the ag industry that we need to do something to move the needle to reinvest in these programs,” he says.
Jacob Westlin tells Brownfield the bills would be the first increase in funding for the Market Access Program and Foreign Market Development Program since before Facebook was created.
