Farmers Face Cut In Share Of Food Dollars
The Agriculture Department predicted increased marketing charges will cut the farmer's share of the consumer food dollar to 40 cents in 1958. Charges for processing and distributing farm products are expected to rise to near the third quarter of 1965 levels. Prices received by farmers for food products were 7 percent lower than in 1954's third quarter. Senate Democrats plan direct subsidy legislation to bolster farm prices, aiming for income support around 90 percent of parity, as a likely alternative to price support.
