House panel backs temporary credit for soybean farmers
The House Agriculture Committee approved a bill by a 36 to 3 vote to allow soybean producers who did not participate in last year’s grain set aside to receive price support loans. Eligible farmers would get 4.30 per bushel while those who cut back grain production retain 4.50 per bushel amid embargo effects and high costs.

Soviet planting back on schedule
The Agriculture Department said in a May report that Soviet farmers advanced in spring planting for the 1980 harvest, likely offsetting earlier delays from bad weather. Spring plantings reached about 84 percent of the planned area, with winter grain crops also larger than last year, though forecasts ranged 190 to 230 million metric tons and a June 11 analysis was planned.
