2023 Farm Bill could help farmers adopt precision ag

The American Soybean Association says support for precision agriculture technology in the 2023 Farm Bill could help conservation efforts.

Director of Government Affairs Ariel Wiegard tells Brownfield …

“Margins are pretty thin right now and precision ag equipment is not inexpensive, so we’re seeing what we can do to offer some resources through USDA either through grants or loans, or maybe incorporating precision agriculture into the conservation programs,” she explains.

She says the conservation title in the current bill seems to be working for farmers.
