Plan to strengthen brucellosis control and farm aid
Gov. Christopher S. Bond signed a bill authorizing the state Department of Agriculture to establish brucellosis control programs with indemnity payments raised above previous limits. The payment amount is set by the state veterinarian and cannot exceed breeding value. Also signed were measures boosting county fair support from 15 000 to 25 000 and authorizing up to 2500 state aid on a 90 50 match for fair buildings. A merchandising council bill sets procedures, excludes major commodities, and requires producer votes for funding.
