California Wheat Referendum Rejection Signals Market Freedom
Caspar Weinberger notes that California wheat farmers joined nationwide in rejecting a government plan offering $2 per bushel under strict production controls. The vote, about 600,000 against and 550,000 for, implies price supports may drop to $1.25 next year for voluntary production. The vote reflects a broader shift toward free market pricing and away from federal intervention, influenced by strong opposition from California Farm Bureau Federation led by Charles Shuman who has not taken farm subsidies in 15 years.
