ARLINGTON, Va. \u2014 A major agricultural trade organization is praising recent progress on farm legislation in Congress, describing the advancement as a vital move toward delivering stability to America’s farming sector.<\/p>

The National Grain and Feed Association issued a statement on March 5, 2026, expressing support for the House Agriculture Committee’s decision to move forward with the farm bill during committee markup proceedings.<\/p>

The organization recognized Committee Chairman Glenn “GT” Thompson, a Pennsylvania Republican, along with other committee members for their efforts in pushing the legislation ahead. They also called on House leadership to schedule floor consideration of the measure without delay.<\/p>

“Advancing the farm bill out of committee is a critical step toward delivering the certainty farmers, grain handlers, and the broader agricultural supply chain urgently need,” said NGFA President and CEO Mike Seyfert. “Congress should build on this bipartisan momentum and move quickly to consider the legislation on the House floor.”<\/p>

The association highlighted its strong backing for keeping the existing Conservation Reserve Program spending limits unchanged, as well as enhanced funding for the Market Access Program and additional trade initiatives. These programs are viewed as essential for boosting export potential and maintaining the competitive edge of American agriculture in global markets.<\/p>

The organization expressed its commitment to ongoing collaboration with legislators from both the House and Senate as the farm bill moves through the legislative process toward final approval.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
