Updated Senate farm bill timeline could help nutrition talks

Senate Agriculture Committee leadership has signaled an updated timeline for moving the farm bill, which could give negotiators more room to work through disputes over nutrition programs such as SNAP. The farm bill, renewed roughly every five years, splits spending between farm support and food assistance, and disagreements over nutrition funding have been a key sticking point. Stakeholders in agriculture and food policy are watching whether the revised schedule leads to a bipartisan deal.

Why now: The farm bill affects major nutrition programs, and any shift in the Senate timetable changes prospects for a long-stalled negotiation.
