Serious Grain Transportation Problems Continue In Iowa
Iowa grain transportation problems are expected to persist as elevators try to move about 50 million bushels more than capacity. Analysts Phil Baumel and Bob Wisner estimate capacity for April through September, with new cars and peak barge activity aiding but not fully closing the gap. They warn a sharp rise in out-of-state shipments and a large carryover could strain a system already near full capacity. They note 278 million bushels of corn remain under price support loans, and suggest steps for elevator operators to ease pressures.

Faun News Administration Sued Over Dairy Imports
The National Milk Producers Federation leads a lawsuit challenging the administrations use of section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act to expand dairy product imports. Plaintiffs include Michigan Milk Producers Assn Detroit Consolidated Dairy Producers Co Seattle Land O Lakes Minneapolis and Glenn Lake a North Branch Mich dairy farmer and federation president. Defendants are Treasury Secretary Schultz Agriculture Secretary Bulz and all six U S Tariff Commission members. The suit filed in U S district court for the District of Columbia seeks a declaratory judgment on the May 10 presidential proclamation invoking section 22 to allow 60 million pounds of evaporated milk imports, arguing congressional intent was to restrain imports when domestic programs are affected and that section 24 emergency powers do not authorize expansion. The piece also notes Van Horne Holsteins Dennis A Biersbenk produced records including Cloverbrook Renee 17180 pounds milk and 674 pounds butterfat in 405 days, Dan Angel Pride Run 16870 pounds milk and 037 pounds butterfat, and Pure Gold Dorothy 15930 pounds milk and file pounds butterfat in 274 days.
