The National Agricultural Law Center offers a wide
range of resources, one which is the United States Farm Bills database, available
here.
This resource includes farm bills from the 2012 Senate (Agricultural Reform, Food, and Jobs Act of 2012) and House
(Federal Agricultural Reform and Risk Management (FARRM) Act of 2013) bills to
the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act of 1935. Information available on bills includes a
glossary, full text, and legislative history.
Other resources on specific farm bills include research
articles, congressional resources, and information from the Economic Research
Service (ERS).
The database is easy to navigate, with the bills
arranged chronologically from the most recent 2012 proposed bills to the
earliest farm bill. These resources are
provided by the National Agricultural Law Center as a free service to the
public.
