Earl opposes moratorium on Wisconsin farm foreclosures
Gov. Anthony Earl remains opposed to a state moratorium arguing it would raise false hopes for some farmers and do little to help those near bankruptcy. Alan Fish, the legislative liaison, said it would hinder loans for non distress farmers and affect only about 200 with a potential 2,000 foreclosures this year under the federal farm credit system. Some farmers and legislators urge action to pressure Congress and Reagan to revise the farm bill.
