Peanut Farmers to Vote on Marketing Quotas in County Referendum
Gillespie County peanut farmers will vote on Saturday April 26 to decide if they will market their 1941 crop under marketing quotas. If two thirds approve, quotas stay in effect for three years with a national quota set at 1,610,000 acres. The act allows penalties for peanuts sold above quota but exempts excess sold to designated agencies. If rejected, peanut loans or diversion programs cannot be offered for 1941.
