Bread Price Hike Not Farmers Fault
Washington AP An official of the National Association of Wheat Growers testified that bread price increases are not caused by wheat farmers. He said farmers receive little more for Wheat than 15 or 20 years ago and that bakers millers and distributors account for the main rise. The hearing chair Rep Purcell aims to explore costs.
