2018 Farm Bill

Dr. Keith Coble, Professor and Head of the Agric. Economics Dept. at MSU, has provided two items that can be accessed to learn about the main points of the 2018 Farm Bill that was signed into law in Dec. 2018.

Dr. Coble is uniquely qualified to provide this information. He is a Giles Distinguished Professor in and Head of the Dept. of Agric. Economics at Miss. State Univ. He was actively involved in the debate leading to the 2014 Farm Bill, and is well known to Miss. producers as an authority on agricultural policy, crop insurance, and agricultural data analytics.

The first item is a video titled “A First Look at the 2018 Farm Bill” that can be seen here.
