The farm bill saga continues. Brad Lubben, Extension agricultural policy specialist at Nebraska, breaks down the Senate Agriculture Committee's Sept. 16 vote and what it means for a bill still headed toward a lame-duck showdown after the November election. Lubben explains what's actually at stake, from the Conservation Reserve Program to the SNAP dispute that's long held the farm bill's coalition together. He also digs into the fight over language that would override state laws like California's Proposition 12, and what it would take to get year-round E15 across the finish line. Plus, an update on 2026 commodity program enrollment and what producers should be thinking about as they plan for 2027.
