The Mississippi River in Hannibal dropped below flood stage today for the first time since March 10, marking a record run above flood levels.

Processors warn the policy could squeeze raw agricultural product prices, risking reduced supplies if profits vanish. Executives cite recent potato costs and fear higher input costs without retail price increases. Critics say farm price controls are essential for stabilization, while others expect supply actions to limit gains.
