Government study favors bushel allotments to curb surpluses
A Agriculture Department report compares five wheat programs and finds a bushel allotment scheme could cut surpluses while raising farm income. The plan would cap sales for domestic and export markets, pay farmers about 2.35 dollars per domestic bushel and 1.56 dollars per export bushel, with a 20 percent acreage retirement plus about 10 dollars per acre in payments. Estimated income gains range from four percent in northwest Kansas to thirty nine percent in northwest Oklahoma.
