NFU President Urges Unified Farm Bill Approach

National Farmers Union President Rob Larew responded to the House Agriculture Committee’s reconciliation bill, saying he appreciates efforts to strengthen crop insurance, the farm safety net, and conservation programs. However, Larew criticized the process, warning that dividing farm and nutrition priorities creates unnecessary conflict. He emphasized the need for a unified farm bill that addresses the full range of challenges facing agriculture and rural communities, saying it must support farmers, ranchers, and families alike.
