Kansan lawmakers push to preserve conservation funding and seek grain lab
The Wichita Eagle reports the Kansas congressional delegation and state farmers urge resisting a $100 million cut to the agriculture conservation program. Some seek keeping funds at $250 million, others favor modest increases. Rep. Avery seeks $180,000 for a grain marketing research lab at Kansas State University with support from Shriver Dole Ellsworth and McVey. They stress soil conservation must not be reduced, arguing long term food security hinges on sustained conservation.
