Petrino was irate at the half.. He wanted an interference call on interception at the end of the half. He probably feels like he can't get any calls...

Our farmers are facing the worst financial crisis in a generation, and the OBBB strengthens the farm safety net when it’s needed most. But Grassley Amendment 2527 would strike key agriculture provisions and slash critical support for producers. @SenateAgGOP Chairman Boozman, state, local, and national farm groups, and I oppose it – and so should the Senate. Vote no.

Dudley Hoskins is nominated to be Under Secretary of Agriculture for Marketing and Regulatory Programs at @USDA. He has been a steadfast public servant throughout his time as a member of Chairman @JohnBoozman's Senate Ag Committee staff and as a USDA appointee during President Trump's first term. He is well-positioned to succeed at leading this mission area at the department and supporting America's agriculture producers in this new role.

Farmers feed America. But they need certainty to plan for the future. A new five-year farm bill would ensure our producers have the tools to keep our food supply affordable and secure.

Noble shared the challenges facing rural communities in Arkansas + the importance of strong risk management tools and access to credit for farmers and rural businesses. Read more about his testimony from @usaricenews: usarice.com/news-and-event…

Farmers are facing the worst economic conditions in years: rising costs, falling prices, and an outdated farm safety net. It's time to get a new farm bill across the finish line. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2025/02/12/law…

As the now-Chairman of @SenateAgGOP, I’m committed to delivering the relief + assistance necessary to ensure America’s farmers can continue feeding, clothing & fueling the world.

@JohnBoozman & @SenateAgGOP thank you for your tireless work. Your strong leadership is essential to Arkansas!

Many thanks to @JohnBoozman and @SenTomCotton for supporting the continuing resolution that adverted a government shutdown, extended the farm bill, and provided much needed disaster and economic relief to farmers and ranchers. Thank you for supporting Arkansas farmers!

Chairman @CongressmanGT's Statement on the Further Continuing Appropriations and Disaster Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year: “The bill released this evening provides much needed relief for agriculture, including $10B in emergency economic aid, which will help address the significant losses incurred due to both weather and market related issues. This addition of economic support is an important financial bridge, one that will help mitigate the severe downturn in the agricultural economy.  "Looking ahead to the 119th Congress, I hope to move quickly to enact a five-year farm bill that aligns the farm safety net with the needs of producers, among many other policies, to minimize the need for annual economic aid.  "I appreciate the partnership of incoming-Chairman Boozman, as well as Members and stakeholders, all who quickly and effectively highlighted the needs in farm country. These tireless efforts will lessen much of the stress for the men and women who fight to produce the food, fiber, and fuel that sustains our great nation."

The agriculture financial crisis is real. Not only are our farms at stake, but let’s remember, an abundant and sustainable domestic food supply is national security, as well economic security for rural communities. Congress ignores this reality at all our peril.

Statement from Arkansas Farm Bureau President Rich Hillman on the passing of former U.S. Rep. Marion Berry of Gillette, who served as Congressman for Arkansas’s 1st District from 1997-2011. “Our prayers are with the family of Rep. Marion Berry, whose service to Arkansas (cont.)

Arkansas Farm Bureau administers the state commodity check-off programs at no cost, so that the farmer-generated funds from the programs go directly toward their intended use identified by the checkoff boards.

Arkansans want clean & safe water. They don’t need the federal government to seize control of every pond, puddle & ditch in the name of protecting the environment. I'm standing up for farmers, ranchers, landowners and the opportunities WOTUS would trample. boozman.senate.gov/public/index.c…

Great to be with Governor @SarahHuckabee at the Lonoke Business Academy as they launched a partnership with @GoGreenwayEquip for students to have hands on agricultural tech training to be workforce ready!

I’m honored to have the opportunity to address the nation after the State of the Union on Tuesday. What America needs – and what Republicans are offering – is a return to common sense and a commitment to the ideals that made America the land of the free and home of the brave.

We’re extremely disappointed in the new WOTUS rule. Farmers & ranchers share the goal of protecting the nation’s waterways, but they deserve rules that don’t require a team of attorneys and consultants to identify ‘navigable waters’ on their land.

Congratulations to @ArFB on receiving the Outstanding Corporation Award from the @AFPArk today! There is no greater testament to their support than this team of ArFB volunteers that were serving in the warehouse while they were receiving this award. Very well deserved!

May we never forget the brave men and women who gave us FREEDOM!
