Buzz Will Ask for Extension of Current Crop Subsidy Plan
Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz, after a strong farm vote for Nixon, said the administration will ask Congress to extend the acreage set aside program under the 1970 law and seek more authority to adjust farm subsidies. He argued for faster decisions to boost cotton, wheat, and feed grains, and to move away from rigid guidelines toward market-driven policy while gradually restoring idle acreage to production. The administration cited farm vote strength and rising export demand as support for more flexible, market-oriented policy.

Beef Carcass Data Service Initiated by Ag Officials
Iowa and national officials launch a beef carcass data service to assist purebred breeders and cattlemen. The program uses ear tags at $2 each to track carcass data, testing, genetic potential, and merchandising through producers, state departments, and trade groups. Glenn, IBIA secretary, says the service is self supporting with USDA fee included. The Des Moines and Avoca warehouse shortages and a court receiver frame ongoing Iowa politics around grain facilities and the state Commerce Commission actions.
