The Food and Agriculture Climate Alliance Releases Farm Bill Policy Recommendations

The Food and Agriculture Climate Alliance (FACA) released policy recommendations for the 2023 farm bill. FACA said the farm bill is essential legislation that impacts every family in America and has enormous potential to help the food, agriculture and forestry sectors achieve their climate mitigation potential while preserving and creating new economic opportunities.

Further reducing emissions throughout agricultural and forestry supply chains will require a comprehensive effort involving financial and technical assistance, research investments, proactive response to innovation, public-private partnerships and a commitment to equitable opportunities for all producers, said FACA.

FACA’s past recommendations have provided guidance to Members of Congress and Administration officials and have been credited with shaping federal laws and programs. “We now urge both chambers of Congress and the President to act this year to pass a farm bill that advances voluntary bipartisan climate solutions,” FACA said.
