Abstract
Complex policy issues and tradeoffs will arise in crafting the 1990 or 1991 Farm Bill. Efforts to advance progress toward sustainable agriculture production systems could arise in the farm bill's commodity, conservation, and research titles. Key definitional issues are highlighted here, as well as water quality issues and the impact of ongoing GATT negotiations in the context of increasing global demands on American agriculture.
