North Dakota Farmers Union is looking at ways to improve the farm bill. “Those priorities fit into three buckets, strengthening the farm safety net, establishing and improving permanent disaster programs and providing farmer-friendly climate provisions,” said NDFU Government Relations Director Matt Perdue. Maintaining the integrity of the crop insurance program is part of that conversation. “The goal was to make sure these payments are directed towards family farms and ranches. We’ve talked a lot about how to close those loopholes.”
