Optimistic Talk on Sugar Beet Plant for Southwest Kansas
Two speakers urged optimism about a planned sugar beet industry and a processing plant for Garden City with or without more acreage legislation. Ray Barmby of George K. Baum Co warned the plan hinges on additional acreage and a committed processor while Sen. James B. Pearson urged passage of S 2657 to lift beet quotas and extend the bill to 1969, noting policy changes could shape the local project this year. He cautioned against over optimism without legislative action.

Wheat Price Support Rates To Be Varied By Administration
Price support rates for this year's wheat crop are set to average $1.30 a bushel at the farm with county variations up to 59 cents. The highest rate is $1.55 in Howard County Maryland and the lowest $0.96 in several Arizona and Colorado counties. Rates apply to No 1 grade wheat with average adjustments likely 2 cents lower. 1964 county rates are about 52 cents below last year and include marketing certificates and land diversion payments. Millers face a 70 cent per bushel processing tax plus other price factors. Transportation will add to costs, with Kansas No 1 wheat ranging $1.18-$1.38 and other states shown. Premiums apply for high protein wheat.
