Acres Inflation calls for sacrifices in farming voices

The Gazette spoke with Lloyd Jordan, a 44 year old farmer with 826 acres and 40 crossbred cows plus 1000 hogs, about farming life, weather, loans, taxes, and politics. He notes good spring potential with more rains needed, discusses 4-H changes and inflation, and backs Reagan over Carter while recalling Bryan’s quote.

Grassley amendment backs 75 percent advance on 1980 crops

The House Agriculture Committee backed an amendment by Rep. Grassley to guarantee a 75 percent advance payment to farmers under any 1980 crop diversion program. The prepayment would occur within 30 days of activation, avoiding July delays and aiding Iowa farmers facing high costs and credit strain. The bill, tied to a paid land diversion plan for seed grain, awaits House floor action.
