Benson Sees Wheat Supports Holding Above Eighty Percent
Washington Secretary of Agriculture Benson said price supports for the 1955 wheat crop will not fall below 80 percent under current law. He called 80 percent a prudent level, noting it would reduce the current $2.24 per bushel price to $1.99 and that parity-based supports may shift between 75 and 90 percent depending on Congress. He predicted farmers will back stringent marketing quotas in a referendum to qualify for supports, with final levels likely after formal action by Congress and Senate debate on dairy and other crops. He also noted milk production dipped after a 90 to 75 percent shift and that a new livestock purchase program decision is forthcoming due to drought conditions.
