Senate Agriculture Committee Ranking Member John Boozman acknowledged the prolonged farm bill process. “What we’ve got to do is reset the farm safety net,” said Boozman. “That’s going to cost some money and we’re trying to figure out how we do that. We don’t need to just do something, we need to do the right thing.” Boozman said the farm bill passed by Congress is in effect for five years and that should not be taken lightly. Boozman was in North Dakota for the Senate Agriculture Appropriations Committee field hearing.
