What is the Farm Bill, and why is it important?
On the surface, the U.S. Farm Bill might not sound very exciting to the typical person. Yet the 2024 Farm Bill will direct over $1 trillion in federal government spending over the next 5 years. It is at the foundation of our food assistance, food supply, and farming systems. It has significant influence on farming livelihoods and rural development, as well as factors that affect our everyday lives, including what kinds of foods are grown and how they are grown, food prices and healthy food access, funding for food assistance programs, our climate, and much more.
At this virtual event, experts from the Center for Policy Research answered questions about the potential implications of the Farm Bill on Americans’ everyday lives.
