Block says farm cuts remain undecided amid reform push
Agriculture Secretary John R. Block told reporters at the USDA outlook conference that the jury is still out on how deeply to cut farm programs from record levels. He advocated a fair across the board freeze but warned against precipitous cuts harming an industry in pain. He outlined plans to progressively reduce costs and pursue a market oriented 1985 farm bill, studying non recourse loans and the role of target prices while stressing the need for reform for long term health.
