Farm law marks first four year run since 1938
Moyers noted the new farm law is the first since 1938 to give farm programs a four year run. It aims to ease farm program costs, strengthen U.S. cotton, wheat and feed grain markets, and shift surplus cropland to recreation and beautification while promoting farm-city cooperation. The measure includes a 21 cent cotton price floor, wheat support around $2.57 a bushel with base and milling subsidies, and allows government dairy product sales by the Commodity Credit Corporation.
