Key provisions include raising the reference price for wheat from $5.50 to $6.50 per bushel, corn from $3.70 to $4.20 per bushel, and soybeans from $8.40 to $10.00 per bushel. Additionally, the bill increases the reference price for peanuts from $535.00 to $635.00 per ton and for seed cotton from $0.367 to $0.45 per pound, directly impacting producers of these commodities.
