Implications of various budget/deficit reduction proposals under consideration by Congress to appropriations and authorization legislation and issues and funding for programs important to the crop protection industry;
Congressional action on appropriations legislation (especially for Agriculture and for Interior and for Commerce), and how those actions address issues and funding for programs important to the crop protection industry. Potential implications to the crop protection industry from efforts by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to review and consider modifications to its policies governing spray drift from pesticides used in agricultural operations and how those modifications could impact on activities by state agencies that have assumed enforcement responsibilities under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). Relative to the Administration's response to the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals decision in National Cotton Council v EPA (holding that pesticides used in certain agricultural practices in the United States are subject to the permitting requirements of the Clean Water Act), and in support of H. R. 872, legislation proposing relief from the consequences of that decision. Congressional efforts to develop legislation to reauthorize the General Farm Act  and how those efforts and matters under consideration could impact on issues of importance to the crop protection industry in the United States
