Farm Bill

Congress has a chance once every five years to transform conservation in agriculture. Will they take it?

Democratic state Rep. Omari Hardy, who represents north Palm Beach County along the coast, says the particle emissions added in the proposed expansion of the "Right to Farm Act" will negatively impact marginalized communities.

While much of the farm bill draft mirrors current law, there is a major change coming for farmers: Industrial hemp will be legalized. Forestry and food stamps became sticking points.
