Surplus Potatoes To Be Dumped If Congress Acts
Secretary Brannan told the Senate agriculture committee that about 50 million bushels of surplus potatoes from the farm price support program may be dumped unless Congress intervenes. The government paid roughly $1.25 a bushel and faces an 80 to 100 million dollar loss on last year’s crop, with prior year losses near 250 million. Options discussed include limiting production or ending the price support program.
