"Our sincere thanks to Kansas Senator Pat Roberts and Congressman Jerry Moran who fought for direct payments and crop insurance as farms, banks and every associated business in rural Kansas is sustained by economic industry of agriculture. The sustainability of family farms will be supported at a time when input costs are skyrocketing and producers are experiencing historic volatility in the marketplace."

-Joe Kejr
President of the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers

"The National Association of Wheat Growers and its grower-members were pleased to see the Senate pass the farm bill conference report. The process of getting this farm bill negotiated and written in Congress has been long and trying for everyone involved, and, despite our continued reservations about some provisions in the bill, we are pleased to see it has now passed both chambers."

-David Cleavinger

"On behalf of Dairy Farmers of America, Inc. and our more than 18,000 dairy farmer members, thank you [Sen. Roberts]for your support of the Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008. Your vote in favor of this 5-year farm bill demonstrates your commitment to American agriculture.

-Tom Camerlo
Chairman of the Board

"The farm bill approved by the House yesterday and the Senate today strikes a key balance. The bill provides vital support for nutrition, conservation, research, food safety and many other programs that benefit all Americans. No farm bill ever is perfect, but this bill includes substantial reforms. Members of the conference committee did an outstanding job addressing the administration’s concerns regarding financing. Moreover, in spite of a cut in the cornerstone support offered by direct payments, this is a good, solid bill for American agriculture, American consumers and the environment."

 -Bob Stallman
American Farm Bureau Federation President

 "The National Sorghum Producers is urging Congress to vote for the proposed Farm Bill Conference Report and give farmers the stability they need to continue to provide the safest, most affordable food supply in the world while contributing to Americas fuel independence. We especially thank Senator Pat Roberts and Congressman Jerry Moran for their work in securing vital crop insurance language for the sorghum industry. This industry has struggled under USDAs system for setting crop insurance price elections for many years, and through Roberts and Morans efforts, we finally have the opportunity to affect change that will improve insurance prices for sorghum farmers.
