NFO President Oren Lee Staley urged 50 percent participation by Sept. 1 and contracts by March 1, 1979 to guarantee cost of production plus a fair profit, with a possible holding action if needs aren t met. The crowd, many NFO members, discussed targets and projected outputs for cattle hogs corn soybeans and milk amid calls for action.
