Farmers Face Pinch On Fuel At MFA Convention
In Columbia Missouri MFA president Fred W Heinkel told about 10 000 farmers that paying for high priced foreign crude with cheap farm products is risky. He noted field work relies on gasoline and tractor fuel and called it a double edged problem. Robert Partridge urged cooperatives to counter monopoly pricing and aid farmer energy needs while John White pledged policies to reverse declining farmer income and push a grain reserve to shield wheat prices. Heinkel predicted the new farm bill and Carter admin stance would ease farmers woes.
