MFA Meeting Backs Farm Coalition on Expansion Plans
The Midcontinent Farmers Association backs expanded farm programs and world market access. It urges open door policy into Common Market and other nations, removal of grain shipment and chemical taxes, and freeing inland waterways to spur growth. The group defends family farm ownership, opposes tax dodge farming, and calls for price supports tied to parity, lower interest rates, and timely rail car service to ease costs.
