Abstract

In the conclusions, we discuss some of the factors that have contributed to the prolonging of debate over the last several farm bills, as four of the five most recent bills have taken more than a calendar year to complete. We also examine the set of agricultural policy issues most likely to be focused on by the US agricultural sector as offering the best opportunities to enhance demand for their products over the next few decades, or on the negative side, to complicate their operations. Many of these issues, such as agricultural trade policy, renewable energy, food safety regulation, and biotechnology regulation, fall largely outside the traditional jurisdiction of the House and Senate Agriculture Committees.
