Feed Prospects Improve for Winter Dairy and Farms
The Department of Agriculture projects stronger protein feed prospects this winter with bumper wheat and corn yields possibly surpassing last year by 60 million bushels. Soybeans set a record, peanut yields rise, and cottonseed output falls. Beneficiaries include dairy farmers, ranchers, and general farmers, though soy processing to mills in the Southwest remains a challenge. The War Food Administration is being urged to aid in directing more soy to mills. A million veterans released from service see expanding rehabilitation via GI Bill provisions, college courses, loans for small farms or homes, and a summary of rights is available by request.
