Agri-Pulse Communications Editor Sara Wyant says there will be a lot of new people writing the next Farm Bill and many of these lawmakers have no agricultural background. “A lot of them have not been involved in writing a farm bill in the past and may have joined the House Agriculture Committee not to work on farm policy, but to work on food policy.” With the lame duck session ongoing, Wyant is keeping an eye on the Water Resources Development Act. “We’re watching WRDA to get crucial infrastructure in place for moving our farm exports to market.” Wyant was part of the Ag Leader’s Forum Tuesday in Bismarck.
