Rep. Paul Findley proposes an amendment to cap annual farm payment programs at 20 000 per commodity for cotton feed grain and wheat under the strategic storable agricultural commodities act of 1971. He estimates the change would save about 200 million dollars yearly while noting storage and acquisition costs of the strategic reserve could reach 210 million annually and possibly 1 4 billion overall.
