"The Farm Bill impacts almost every facet of the nation’s resources and operations, including food, water, air, public health, national security, the US economy, its workforce, the agricultural sector, and the lives of farmers and farmworkers—those who are the backbone of the industry. "
KisstheGround.com says "The Farm Bill at present prioritizes conventional agriculture models first set in motion in the 1930s, allocating only 1% of the budget for educational, renewable, and regenerative solutions." "With a $428 billion 6-year budget, the 2023 requested budget summary requested only $21 million to support key climate priorities within the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) (this includes the only mention of establishing soil health)."
