The USDA announces subsidies to divert up to nine million hundredweight of russet potatoes from Wisconsin and other states into animal feed to raise farm prices. The plan, starting January, will be run by state committees with payments of 2 dollars per hundredweight for the first 30 days and 1.75 dollars for the next 30 days. Consumers may see potato prices rise up to a penny per pound.
