Kennedy proposes tough controls to cut farm surpluses
President Kennedy outlines a 1963 farm program to curb production and expand supports, insisting on managed abundance.

It aims to reduce government stocks, cut costs, and raise net farm income, though critics call it coercive. Congress faces a hard choice similar to last year’s passage.
