Farmers who may be concerned about the outcome of the next farm bill based on which political party has the majority following the mid-term elections need not to worry.  That’s according to Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa.  Grassley says agriculture, and specifically the farm bill, is an area that sees bi-partisan support.  Grassley says during his town hall meetings held in each of the 99 Iowa counties, he has heard farmers share their thoughts about the next farm legislation.
