Senate Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Committee
Impact of EPA Regulation on Agriculture
“As Chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, I am pleased to hold this hearing to examine the impact of EPA regulation on agriculture and rural America to ensure that we are avoiding unnecessary, duplicative regulation,” Lincoln said. “American family farmers and ranchers produce the safest, most affordable, and abundant supply of food and fiber in the world and do so with great respect for our environment. I look forward to exploring how we ensure the continued success of our producers by building a more collaborative relationship between the EPA and American agriculture.”
