Conservation and the 2007 farm bill
2007
Zinn, Jeffrey A.
Conservation is playing a prominent role in the development of a farm bill by the 110th Congress. The House and Senate Agricultural Committees are each assembling their versions of farm bill conservation titles, drawing on information gathered at numerous hearings, recommendations and proposals offered by many interested parties (including the Bush Administration), and legislative proposals introduced by other Members. The House Agriculture Committee has issued "discussion drafts" of all farm bill titles. These drafts have been acted on at the subcommittee level, with full committee consideration scheduled to start soon. The Senate Agriculture Committee staff continues to develop its version of the farm bill, and Chairman Harkin anticipates that the committee can begin consideration of its version soon as well.
