Columbia University professor Paul H Nystrom told a House Labor subcommittee the wage hour law will reduce farm production. He urged repeal of the 40 hour week and 40 cent minimum, arguing higher wages raise costs and push farms toward larger operations, risking food shortages for national needs. He noted exemptions for agricultural workers have still raised costs and altered farming labor.
