Wheat Growers Support Boosts to PLC and Crop Insurance

The National Association of Wheat Growers is voicing support for the House Agriculture Committee’s version of the reconciliation bill. NAWG President Pat Clements says the legislation includes many of the top priorities wheat growers have pushed for over the past three years. The bill boosts the Price Loss Coverage program, strengthens crop insurance, and doubles funding for export promotion through the Market Access and Foreign Market Development programs. NAWG says Congress must act this year to deliver these improvements and provide long-term certainty for wheat producers.
