Congress has missed the September 30 deadline to pass a new farm bill, leaving major legislation that sets food and farm policy for the next five years in limbo. With no last-minute push to pass the bill or extend the current one, lawmakers are now expected to revisit the issue during the lame-duck session after the November election. If they fail to reach an agreement by the end of the year, critical programs could expire, leading to significant disruptions.
