In March 2019, Murray was one of 38 senators to sign a letter to [[United States Secretary of Agriculture|U.S. Agriculture Secretary]] [[Sonny Perdue]] warning that dairy farmers "have continued to face market instability and are struggling to survive the fourth year of sustained low prices" and urging his department to "strongly encourage these farmers to consider the Dairy Margin Coverage program".<ref>{{cite news |url=https://urbanmilwaukee.com/pressrelease/u-s-senator-tammy-baldwin-calls-on-trump-administration-to-implement-farm-bill-dairy-improvements-for-wisconsin-dairy-farmers/ |title=U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin Calls on Trump Administration to Implement Farm Bill Dairy Improvements for Wisconsin Dairy Farmers |date=April 1, 2019 |work=Urban Milwaukee|access-date=October 16, 2020}}</ref>

In June 2019, Murray and 18 other Democratic senators sent [[United States Department of Agriculture|USDA]] Inspector General (IG) Phyllis K. Fong a letter requesting that the IG investigate USDA instances of retaliation and political decision-making and asserting that not to do so would mean these "actions could be perceived as a part of this administration’s broader pattern of not only discounting the value of federal employees, but suppressing, undermining, discounting, and wholesale ignoring scientific data produced by their own qualified scientists".<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.insidernj.com/press-release/menendez-booker-join-call-investigation-usda-amid-reports-scientific-data-suppression/ |title=Menendez, Booker Join Call for Investigation at USDA amid Reports of Scientific Data Suppression |work=Insider NJ|date=June 26, 2019|access-date=October 16, 2020}}</ref>
