Benson Wins State Farm Bureau Backing in California
The California Farm Bureau Federation voted Friday to back Secretary of Agriculture Benson and support flexible price supports over the current 90 percent rigid system. Delegates praised Benson’s farmer consultation and urged shifting pressure from cotton to soil conservation programs, with modest cuts in western cotton acreage and support for farm exports. They endorsed his Department of Agriculture reorganization and a statewide water resources department, while opposing direct cattle price supports and ideological encroachment.
