Economist warns against too low farm supports or too high price floors
Ag economist Don Paarlberg of the Ford administration cautioned that Congress must avoid keeping farm supports too low or setting price floors too high. He urged raising omnibus farm bill supports beyond 1973 levels to prevent sharp price declines while avoiding surpluses and heavy subsidy costs. He also noted reserve stocks could be managed by farmers or government, not constrained by prewritten rules.
