Sen. Lugar Is Heard From

Via FarmPolicy, here's an analysis of Senator Lugar's plan to put FSA mostly out of business (tongue in cheek). Centerpiece seems to be a version of the ARRM I blogged previously, plus cutting CRP, consolidating other programs and some other stuff I can't follow.  But here's a command: "This section directs the Secretary to create a simplified form for initial requests by producers for
assistance. This section also directs the Secretary to evaluate how all conservation application
materials can be streamlined to make it easier for producers to apply to one or more programs."

[Updated by adding all the language after "previously".]
