The 2023 Federal Farm Bill: Why It Matters



The 2023 Farm Bill is an omnibus, multiyear law that governs an array of food, agricultural, and conservation programs. The bill helps to strengthen local infrastructure, support rural economic development initiatives, protect our nation’s food supply, increase access to healthy food for low-income populations, and promote environmental stewardship and conservation. 

Learn more about renewing this federal authorization bill from Margaret Krome, the Policy Program Director of the Michael Fields Agricultural institute.

Join the League of Women Voters of the Upper Mississippi Region in educating our members of Congress in supporting conservation and water quality through the 2023 Farm Bill.
