## Top resources for Oklahoma producers - **Oklahoma Department of Agriculture**: primary state-level point of contact for many federal programs. - **Oklahoma State University Extension**: local research, conservation planning, technical assistance. - **Oklahoma Farm Bureau Federation**: advocacy and producer information. - **Oklahoma FSA County Offices**: direct USDA loan applications, ARC/PLC enrollment, CRP. - **NRCS Oklahoma State Office**: EQIP, CSP, ACEP, conservation planning. ## How Oklahoma should think about the Farm Bill 2.0 If you're a producer in Oklahoma, the most important thing to track is the **interaction between this bill and H.R. 1** (the 2025 reconciliation law). Most commodity policy is locked in by H.R. 1; the 2026 farm bill adds incremental changes on top. For most Oklahoma operations, the highest-impact changes are likely to be: - **Title II conservation reshuffling**: if you use EQIP heavily, expect tighter funding - **Title VI REAP expansion**: if you're a co-op or in renewable energy - **Title XI crop insurance** for veterans, expanded eligibility and subsidy - **Title XII Prop 12 preemption**: if you're in livestock ## Related - [Full Farm Bill 2.0 Summary](/full-bill-summary/) - [What's New vs the 2018 Farm Bill](/whats-new-vs-2018/) - [Program Finder](/program-finder/) - [Browse all states](/states/)
