Cotton voting affects price supports in farm policy
Results of the vote will be tabulated tonight as farmers weigh federal farm price supports. A rejection of quotas would lower guarantees to 50 percent of parity, versus 90 percent this year, with next year’s level set between 75 and 90 percent under a flexible system. Officials expect a possible drop to about 80 percent, around 20 cents a pound, due to large government stockpiles. This would be the lowest level since before World War II.
