Check out this great blog at Environmental Defense site.  There is lots of info about the upcoming Farm Bill in Congress.

From the home page:

“America’s farmers and ranchers produce an extraordinary bounty of food and fiber – as well as clean air, clean water and habitat for wildlife. But, farm and food policies could do much more to meet the needs of farmers, consumers and communities.

Renewal of federal farm and food programs in 2007 creates a rare opportunity to help more farmers and the environment.

Environmental Defense’s new report- “Green Acres: Helping Farmers Help the Environment” shows how reforming our farm and food policies can help solve some of our most pressing environmental challenges.

Tell Congress to take action on farm and food policy reform. “
