Voter seeks to void Congressmen and farm leaders fear expansion
A voter argues to void Congressmen while farm leaders object to legislation expanding production controls across beef cattle milk eggs poultry and other commodities. The Kennedy program would authorize the secretary of agriculture to draft base allotments and production controls subject to grower approval and no congressional veto. Major livestock regions like the South and Midwest could see larger quotas based on a ten year production average, impacting future prices and regional farming structures.
