Kansans are waiting for the White House and USDA to name state directors for USDA-Rural Development. Executive Orders mandating COVID vaccination are resulting in full time employees and FSA county committee members to retire or resign their positions. Language included in various infrastructure proposals can benefit agriculture by expanding broadband and modernizing surface and inland water way transportation routes. We support S. 3580 and HR 4996, the Ocean Shipping Reform Act. However, various proposals within the budget reconciliation stand to severely damage agriculture with increased taxes. Carbon markets and programs have been a point of conversation. As congress continues to debate the appropriate role for carbon programs, Kansas Farm Bureau will continue to monitor and protect agriculture in semi-arid environment. Not every producer can successfully grow a cover crop. Many Kansas producers ranch on native pastures in the Flint Hills, Smoky Hills and the Gyp Hills. Ensuring these ranchers can participate in carbon programs will be key moving forward. On December 15 winds in excess of 100mph hit most of Kansas. Dozens of wildfires burned thousands of acres of land and damaged property. Kansas Farm Bureau worked with the Kansas congressional offices and USDA to set up a meeting in Natoma, Kansas where USDA related disaster programs could be presented and discussed. | Agriculture, Dept of (USDA),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE | 30000 | 0 | 0 | 2022-04-07T15:48:56-04:00 |
