Committee OKs farm bill after scrap over climate-smart ag
The House Agriculture Committee approved a Republican-led farm bill early Friday morning that reflected divisions on agriculture’s role in responding to climate change. The vote — 33-21, largely along party lines — came as the panel adopted a handful of noncontroversial amendments but rejected a Democratic-led effort to preserve conservation programs’ focus on farming practices that reduce emissions tied to the warming and erratic climate.
