Farm Bill Moves To White House With Half Demanded Reforms
Congress passed a farm bill 52 to 41, sending to President Kennedy a plan critics call bait for future controls. The measure includes a new permanent wheat program and expanded rural development tools, but lacks a feed grain control program and adopts a one year extension of the current voluntary feed grain retirement. The wheat plan, a key win for the administration, requires two thirds of growers to approve in a referendum before 1964 activation.
