Baldwin, Hoeven introduce legislation to alleviate feed shortages

The following ag leaders voice their support for the bill: Darin Von Ruden, Wisconsin Farmers Union president. “Rising average temperatures, shifting precipitation patterns, changing growing seasons, and increasingly frequent and severe weather events are making it more difficult to grow food, feed, fuel and fiber. The effects of climate change are becoming clear across rural America, and the past few springs have been especially challenging for family farmers and ranchers. In many areas across Wisconsin, it has been too wet to put seeds in the ground, forcing many farmers to rely on prevented planting insurance coverage to make ends meet.

Baldwin, Hoeven Introduce Bipartisan Legislation to Alleviate Feed Shortages for Farmers and Ranchers

Feed Emergency Enhancement During Disasters with Cover Crops (FEEDD) Act, bipartisan legislation to provide farmers and ranchers with additional flexibility to alleviate feed shortages in years with widespread excessive moisture, flooding or drought. Specifically, the bill would: Create an emergency waiver authority for the Secretary of Agriculture to allow for haying, grazing or chopping of a cover crop on prevented plant acres before November 1 in the event of a feed shortage due to excessive moisture, flood or drought. Under this waiver, producers would not see a reduction of their crop insurance indemnity. Direct the Secretary to establish regional haying and grazing dates for each crop year.
