But what about the Farm Bill? THE POLICY WORK CONTINUES The Select Committee may not agree on a plan. Congress may not approve the plan. Deadlines could get pushed back. The Farm Bill could be considered in 2012 as scheduled. Annual budget and appropriations votes create policy. Designing better farm and food policy will be an ongoing process.
