Procurement List; Additions and Deletions, 35222-35223 [E5-3139]

Download as PDF 35222 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 116 / Friday, June 17, 2005 / Notices distribution of program benefits to large farms. It has also been suggested that program incentives lead to increased production and lower market prices. How should farm policy be designed to effectively and fairly distribute assistance to producers? 4. The achievement of conservation and environmental goals. While producing food and fiber are essential functions, agriculture also plays a major role in natural resource stewardship. Some have suggested that future farm policy might be anchored around the provision of tangible benefits such as cleaner water and air. Such an approach may be consistent with future World Trade Organization obligations on domestic support to agriculture, while also expanding farm programs to extend more broadly across agriculture, including private forest lands. How can farm policy best achieve conservation and environmental goals? 5. The enhancement of rural economic growth. Farming and rural America once were almost synonomous. Over the years, the demographic and economic characteristics of rural areas have changed, as has farming’s role in the rural economy. This raises the issue of whether more Government attention should be focused on investing in the infrastructure in rural America (for example, investing in new technologies). How can Federal rural and farm programs provide effective assistance in rural areas? 6. Opportunities to expand agricultural products, markets, and research. Changes in farm and market structure over past decades have led to suggestions that farm policy could be more flexible by enabling greater support for a broader range of activities helpful to agriculture market expansion. Examples are: Attention to product quality and new attributes; organic and specialty crops; value-added products, including renewable energy and bioproducts and new uses for farm products generally; expanded basic and applied research; domestic and foreign market development; and similar activities. How should these agricultural product, marketing, and research-related issues be addressed in the next farm bill? This notice is being issued to obtain public comment regarding the next farm bill. There are no regulatory findings associated with this notice. VerDate jul<14>2003 17:59 Jun 16, 2005 Jkt 205001 Signed in Washington, DC, on June 8, 2005.
