Pork Industry Urges House To Pass 2007 Farm Bill
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Calling it good for agriculture, the National Pork Producers Council today urged the House to quickly pass the 2007 Farm Bill approved Thursday by the House Agriculture Committee. The legislation, which is expected to be considered by the full House before Congress starts its August recess, makes moderate reforms in U.S. farm policy yet maintains a safety net for farmers and makes expanded investments in conservation, nutrition and renewable energy programs.
