U.S. agriculture fared better during the Great Recession than many other sectors and remains a bright spot in the U.S. economy. Despite an extensive and severe drought in 2012, net farm income is forecast to total $112.8 billion, only 4.3 percent below the previous year's record of $117.9 billion (USDA 2013a). Strong demand for agricultural products and below average crop yields pushed up crops prices, and along with significant crop insurance indemnity payments, helped to make the 2012 income figure the second-highest since 1974 after adjusting for inflation.The strength of the U.S. agricultural sector is due in part to the demand for American agricultural exports. The value of agricultural exports has steadily risen and now accounts for a projected 31 percent of gross farm cash income. Exports reached a near record level of $135.8 billion in 2012 and are projected to reach $142 billion in 2013 (USDA 2012a).Increasing demand from abroad created by rising incomes and a growing middle class will present opportunities for U.S. agriculture. The world population is expected to reach more than 9.2 billion by 2050, with growth coming primarily in developing countries, most of which are net importers of food products. The convergence of population growth and rapid urbanization, especially in developing regions of the world, will likely result in growing demand for food as well as changing dietary patterns.

Senator PRYOR. I want to welcome everyone to the Subcommittee. I want to thank you all for being here, and all of our witnesses for being here, and all the interested parties. I also want to thank Senator Brown for being here today, and I look forward to his service in this slot. It may be temporary, but we certainly appreciate you and all that you are doing. It has been a pleasure working with you and your staff on this hearing.Let me start by just saying that we have two panels today, very qualified witnesses. I certainly want to thank Director Fugate for being here. As busy as he is around the country right now, his time is very precious, and he has been generous with his time and always helpful to this Committee and Subcommittee and helpful to the Senate. So thank you for being here, and all the other witnesses as well, all the ones who are involved in various disasters around the country. We really appreciate all that you all have done and appreciate you being here today.Last week, a series of severe storms swept across the Southern United States causing immense damage and a historic loss of life. The storm system spurred powerful thunderstorms, tornadoes, and flooding, and it was the second deadliest day of tornado activity in U.S. history, killing 341 people in seven States, including an unimaginable 249 in Alabama. At least those are the latest figures I have. Fourteen people lost their lives as a result of the storm in the State of Arkansas, and I want to offer my most sincere condolences to the families of those impacted or killed during those storms. I hope that your families are comforted through this very difficult time.
