The South Dakota Corn Growers are extremely pleased with today's passing of the farm bill through the United States House of Representatives.

"We appreciate the farm bill's swift passage in the House of Representatives and urge the Senate to do the same, ultimately putting the bill on President Obama's desk," said Mark Gross, president of the South Dakota Corn Growers Association.

"This is the largest deficit reducing bill to pass through Congress in some time. Beyond that we are pleased with the options farmers will have when it comes to risk management."
