25x'25 REsource Blog - "This Week's Gains Must Be Maintained with an Eye toward the Long Term"

Welcome to the second week of the new year! We're back to business as usual here at Prosperity Ag and Energy Resources but we do have some exciting plans for roll out this quarter!

Many of you have been wondering what will become of the programs from the 2008 Farm Bill Energy Title following the apparent resolution of the year-end fiscal cliff. The broad answer is that we still don't know exactly how the year will shape up for these programs such as REAP, BCAP and others. We know that Congress extended the Farm Bill for the Fiscal Year of 2013 (runs through September 30, 2013), but that Energy Title programs did not receive any mandatory funding. That does not mean they won't be funded-but it does not mean they will be funded, either. For a more detailed picture, take a read of the resource below provided by 25 X 25 Initiative.
