Corn Growers Urge Passing Of Farm Bill

Congressional members are getting ready to head back to their districts for two weeks. National Corn Growers Association Vice President of Public Policy Jon Doggett says NCGA hopes constituents will tell their members of Congress a farm bill needs to get done as soon as possible in 2012.
 
Doggett says it appears the Senate is on track to move forward quickly with the farm bill.
