Idle land plan urged by Farm Bureau to cut wheat surplus
The American Farm Bureau Federation proposed a program to reduce wheat overproduction by paying farmers to idle wheat land. It would raise soil bank participation, end acreage allotments and marketing quotas, and set support at about 1.30 a bushel the first year, with rental payments averaging 13.50 per acre. Surplus wheat would be kept from domestic sale at 150 percent of support, about 1.95, above market prices.
