NFO Leader Warns on Corporate Takeover of Farming
NFO President DeVon Woodard warned at a news conference before the national convention that corporate control of farming could threaten family farmers. He cited USDA projections of a 20 percent income drop in 1980 due to fuel costs and high interest, and urged public scrutiny of foreign land purchases while endorsing a Iran food boycott but opposing price-controlling embargoes. He forecast higher food prices and noted growing talk of collective bargaining for farm products as the open market falters.
