Personal Property Tax Removal Would Boost Cattle Profits in Iowa
A report for the Iowa Development Commission argues removing the personal property tax on beef breeding animals could reduce state and local revenue by 6.6 to 98 million while boosting cattle feeding. Preliminary estimates suggest an 8 to 10 percent rise in cattle slaughtering, potentially offsetting tax losses. bankers would need multi-year loans to expand feeder calf production. The study, by William D. Gorman and Garvey E. Caruthers of Agdeltuicl Research and Management Consultants, urges legislative action to remove the tax and expand Iowa beef cow herds beyond 1.4 million head, leveraging local feed grain abundance and bank financing.

Armada of boxcars to corn belt lifts grain movement
Washington reports an armada of boxcar trains will haul this year's Great Plains harvest. Seaman L. Hruska of Nebraska says sixteen trains, about 125 cars each, will move grain from Nebraska and other midwestern states due to a boxcar shortage and crowded elevators. The action follows orders from the Department of Agriculture, the Interstate Commerce Commission, and the American Railway Association to shuttle grain from country elevators to terminals, not to load exports at eastern or coastal ports.
