The House could vote sometime this week on a motion to move the farm bill to conference. Late last week, Agriculture Committee Chairman Mike Conaway and Ranking Member Collin Peterson met for the first time in two months. Peterson said it was a blunt and heated conversation. Conaway still plans to have the new farm bill on the President’s desk before the September 30th deadline. Farm Bill Focus is sponsored, in part, by the National Farmers Union.
