Workable Solution Lowering O7 Price Supports Outlined
Washington post: Agriculture experts say only a substantial drop in price supports for all wheat grades can solve a growing surplus. With 1.872 billion bushels on hand, exports and domestic use would require over two years, risking a record 1 billion bushels bought and stored by July 1 at about 140 million dollars annually. They critique Farm Bureau proposals to tighten grading standards and warn against broad redistribution to hungry nations. Lower supports could spur exports and animal feeds while pushing farmers toward diversification. Other farm notes report butter purchases down, and drought damage persists in Texas and Florida crops with limited repair prospects.
