Wheat Plan Nears Passage and Farm Bureau Backing
A new wheat and cotton policy plan backed by the Farm Bureau aims to replace the administration programs. The plan envisions acreage retirements, price supports around 1.45 to 1.50 per bushel for wheat, and 90 percent of three-year average for grains with a three year program. Cotton would move toward a single price system to cut grower supports, aided by paym ents to mills to offset foreign price advantages.
