Farm parity proposal aims to secure producer prices
Number 38 continues that the measure seeks to assure farm producers receive the higher of parity or the highest price paid between January and September. It covers basic crops including corn, wheat, rice, tobacco, and peanuts, and any others the Government has requested for controlled production. Cotton growers could gain an annual $55 million to $75 million. The plan requires OPA to fix prices for textiles so that raw cotton parity is included in the price. The guarantee lasts only while the price control act remains in effect, and lawmakers hope to extend it in future years.
