The article discusses skepticism over a new farm plan, noting it would rely on taxes rather than direct treasury payments. Critics say the plan is complex, bureaucratic, and unlikely to “work perfectly.” Some doubt the weather and Congress will cooperate, criticizing soil conservation as a substitute for the AAA and the large subsidies paid to nonparticipating entities. The projected annual cost is about six hundred million dollars, challenging calls for a balanced federal budget.
