Fuel, fertilizer, machinery, you name it: #Iowa farmers are paying MORE for it.   The cost of inflation is hitting our farmers & their profits are diminishing daily.

Today’s hearing shared the story of agriculture in Arkansas and the importance of the farm bill to my state. Looking forward to advocating for Arkansas as we begin writing the next Farm Bill.

Input costs for the 2024 growing season are expected to be the third-highest all-time, behind only 2022’s record-high and 2023’s second-all-time high. New analysis shows high farm production costs not easing next year 👇 agriculture.senate.gov/newsroom/minor…

A mandatory base acre update would create winners & losers among neighbors, crops, counties & states. It most certainly would complicate efforts to pass a new farm bill. New analysis shows how a mandatory base acre update divides agriculture ⤵️ agriculture.senate.gov/newsroom/minor…

“The Commodity Title, Title I, is the heart and soul of a Farm Bill… …Until they get serious about Title I, we’re not going to have a Farm Bill.” 💯Senator John Hoeven ! Thank you for stressing this point during your Punchbowl News remarks!

Our hearts are with all those impacted by the devastating wildfires in the Texas panhandle. Many farmers and ranchers have seen their life’s works taken from them in this tragedy. We are committed to working with USDA to get relief to those in need.

“An 11th hour partisan proposal released 415 days after the expiration of the current farm bill is insulting. America’s farmers deserve better.” RM Senator John Boozman
