The farm bill

The farm bill is comprehensive legislation that sets national agriculture, nutrition, conservation and forestry policy.

Programs authorized by the farm bill provide important tools to farmers to manage the risks of natural disaster, trade wars and market downturn risks while they feed, fuel and clothe our nation and people around the world.
