North Dakota Senator John Hoeven praised the farm bill extension during NDFU annual meeting. “It’s really important that we got the one-year extension so folks know they’re going to be covered under the farm programs the way they should be.” Hoeven said the extension also provides time to make necessary improvements. “We hadn’t gotten to what I think we need in the farm bill. That means more farm in the farm bill.” Hoeven wants to see expanded options for crop insurance coverage for both crops and livestock, and voluntary conservation programs.
