Ex Sec Brannan challenges farm policy at Wisconsin meeting
Former Secretary of Agriculture Charles Brannan told 160 Farmers Union members in WEST SALEM that five so called fallacies underpin current farm policy. He argued cheaper feed lowers prices and that open markets help farmers, but that consumer prices rise while farmer incomes fall. Brannan contrasted 1952 and present budgets, noting a jump to 7.3 billion dollars and 17 thousand more workers amid fewer farmers, and recalled the Brannan Plan.
