All Wheat States Set Allotments For 1964 Crop
Theodore Piske of the La Crosse County Ag Stabilization explains that if the May 21 referendum approves quotas all wheat producing states and farms with a 1964 wheat history will receive acreage allotments. Small farms get preferred rates up to 15 acres or 30 acres on farm use, with increases added to the national allotment. Approval means higher price support and diversion payments. disapproval yields 50 percent parity and no diversion program.
