President Trump signed a massive farm bill into law on Thursday.
The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 includes funding for ranchers and farmers, as well as funds for food assistance programs for low-income families. Â
“The passage of the 2019 Farm Bill is good news because it provides a strong safety net for farmers and ranchers, who need the dependability and certainty this legislation affords," Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said in a statement after the bill passed the House.
