No. of Paragraph 16

Supporting the economic and environmental sustainability of agriculture, natural resources, and rural communities.

Washington, DC, May 1, 2024 – Today, the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC) applauded the renewed momentum toward a bipartisan farm bill reauthorization prompted by the Senate Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow’s (D-MI) release of a detailed section-by-section description of its farm bill reauthorization proposal. The Rural Prosperity and Food Security Act framework charts a path for completing a farm bill this year.

Simultaneously, the House Agriculture Committee released a topline summary of its farm bill proposal, which is currently expected to be marked up in late May. The brief five page summary raises significant concerns and represents a marked difference from the Senate’s proposal. Neither of the documents released today offer full legislative text, and NSAC will reserve final assessments of the farm bill and its impacts – from advancing racial equity to investing in healthy communities, leveling the playing field for small and mid-sized farmers, and building toward a climate-resilient future – until full bill text becomes available. 

The following are select promising provisions based on NSAC’s initial analysis of the section-by-section framework of the Rural Prosperity and Food Security Act. In the days ahead, stay tuned to NSAC’s blog for continued analysis and coverage of the farm bill reauthorization, including the Rural Prosperity and Food Security Act.
