Farm Groups Split on Meat Promotion
Washington AP Pro proposed legislation to let market agencies deduct from livestock sales to fund a self help meat promotion program drew support from the National Grange and opposition from the American Farm Bureau Federation. Grange representative W Jackson argued producers should not be barred from contributing to marketing solutions while Farm Bureau counsel Frank Woolley warned of customer relations and competitive issues. The measure would amend the Packers and Stockyards Act to permit deductions with refunds on request, or allow preemptive sales to avoid deductions. Agriculture official Dr M Peltuz noted possible problems but took no direct position.
