PROJECT 2025: Bad for farms
Farmers and ranchers should know about Project 2025, especially Chapter 10’s plans for U.S. Agriculture. The reforms to farm subsidies include eliminating Agriculture Risk Coverage, Price Loss Coverage, and cutting the Farm Service Agency along with the Federal Crop Insurance program. It eliminates Conservation and Easement programs and repeals the Market Access Program and Foreign Market Development.
Chapter 10 of Project 2025 specifies that USDA nutrition programs be severed and administered by the Dept. of Health and Human Services. Except when I look at Chapter 14 of Project 2025 regarding the Trump Administration’s plans for HHS, the nutrition programs aren’t there. Cut the farm subsidies to grow the food, cut the mutual benefit of feeding people, I suppose. Goodbye FDR’s New Deal. Goodbye Farm Bill.
