Numbers from the Senate bill

Here is a link to a spreadsheet that compares the House version of the farm bill and the just passed chairman's mark. The numbers were compiled by Sens. Stabenow and Craig and passed on by Robert Guenther of United.

Here is another link to a summary of the Specialty Crops Subtitle. While the fruit and vegetable program had a big win with Harkin's bill, I wonder how the cut in specialty crop block grants compared with the House bill will play with Western Growers and strong backers of the program.
