well, the interesting question is, how much of the total of agricultural subsidies did the republicans try to cut from the budget?

Anybody know?

Depending on what you call subsidies, the feds subsidize between 8 to as high as 35 billion for agriculture. About 8 bil for direct subsidies, the rest in insurance and support and disaster relief and the like.

How much of that did the republicans cut, or try to cut?
