Commodities fight delays on 1990 farm bill action
Senate Agriculture Committee chairman Patrick Leahy postpones action on the commodities section as Democrats balk at his tactic to placate Republicans. House panel meets in closed session over conservation amid disputes with environmentalists and farmers. Bob Kerrey accuses the plan of echoing a Republican bill while urging a Democratic vote. Lugar threatens floor trouble without a freeze on target prices and loan rates. Kerrey supports linking aid to production costs to aid smaller farms.
