Eastern Iowa farmers show readiness to cooperate with a county-by-county farm management plan drafted from Washington discussions. In Benton and Tama counties, farmers studied soils and crops, with township sessions to shape cropping recommendations to be included in a state plan and then the national framework. The mood favors the constitution but many seek amendments for economic equality.
