Supports. A CRS report on the 2026 farm bill states that authority expires September 30, 2026, and that the House and Senate bills would reauthorize provisions set to expire on that date.[1]
Supports. FarmWeekNow, published September 29, 2026, says the current extension of the 2018 farm bill is expected to expire Sept. 30 unless Congress approves a new bill or another extension.[2]
Supports. The Farm Bureau's September 8, 2026 piece says the current extension will expire on Sept. 30, 2026.[3]
Context. Later reporting says the 2018 Farm Bill officially expired Oct. 1, 2026, after three one-year extensions, and that the claim's 'set to expire' framing reflects the schedule before that lapse.[4][5]
