Freeman argues for parity of income for farmers amid rising demand for Texas grain sorghum. He notes CCC stocks shrinking from 700 million bushels in 1961 to 235 million by mid 1962, projects strong 1965 payments, and says the booming economy tempts farmers to seek off farm work while cotton and feed grains programs unfold. He cites potential surplus reductions and optimistic cotton prospects as part of broader farm price support.
