Wheat Feed Use Boosted for Livestock
Manhattan AP reported a top farm spokesman says rising world meat demand will push farmers to sell more wheat as animal feed. Assistant Secretary Clarence Palmby noted world use of wheat for feed has risen while human-food demand grows. He cited a forthcoming farm bill to guide market-oriented support and a three-year program for cotton wheat and feed grains starting 1971. Palmby said current loan rate of 1.25 dollars per bushel should not deter feed sales, especially if corn prices stay high. The piece also contains a joke about a cat and a family in Mexico.
