Bigger and stronger agricultural export plan outlined
Senator Brookhart of Iowa announced a government export corporation for agricultural products with an estimated capital of 150 million dollars. The plan aims to handle excess farm surpluses for export, guaranteeing the farmer the price of production plus a five percent profit, and could be taken over by agricultural cooperative associations over time. The idea emerged from a Des Moines farmers’ conference and aligns with a broader legislative push by a growing bloc in Congress.
