Jan. 25, 2021
National Sorghum Producers reports:
In an interview with the Red River Farm Network, House Agriculture Committee Chairman David Scott (D-GA) said he plans to prioritize:
*food security,
*racial equality,
*the farm bill and
*climate change.
Chairman Scott also aims to set up an independent disaster aid fund to help farmers. "When you have to do the regular appropriations process, it's delayed. I've got farmers now who don't even have the proper disaster aid." Scott said farm bill discussions are starting and meetings are planned with industry stakeholders.
