America needs a stronger Farm Bill
April 25, 2018
The House Farm Bill proposal fails farmers and ranchers, hungry Americans, the environment, and growing markets.

The current version in the House falls short of the sort of support that farmers and consumers need right now. Join Lane in supporting a stronger Farm Bill that provides the following:
Farmers need a stronger safety net because they are dealing with a five-year, fifty percent drop in profitability.
We need strong conservation programs to support farmers in protecting our land and water.
We need strong market access and fair markets for family farmers and ranchers
We need strong nutrition programs to make sure our most vulnerable can afford to eat and feed their children.
Lastly, farmers over the age of 65 now outnumber farmers under 35 by a margin of six to one.
Lane Siekman knows that America needs strong programs to support the next generation of farmers to secure our food supply and take care of our land.
