NFO Leader Staley Eyes Withholding to Lift Farm Earnings
Oren Lee Staley, reelected president of the National Farmers Organization, warned he would urge members to withhold their goods from markets if processors do not bargain in good faith. He begins his 10th one-year term amid a 10,000-person convention of 25 states. Staley says farmers deserve parity in prices equal to processors’ power after processing and cites NFC tactics from six years ago to spur higher prices and competition. President Johnson praised NFC members for contributing to a strong year since 1952 and to parity goals.

Des Moines AP reports grain marketing expert Dr J William Uhrig of Iowa State University says drying and storing corn can be cheaper at commercial elevators than on the farm but farmers must have access to these services before investing in facilities. He predicts changes in the Iowa grain industry with about half of the state's 1100 elevators potentially forced out of business due to competition.

Changes in 1966 Feed Grain Farm Program
The 1966 feed grain program stays largely unchanged but raises payment rates to broaden farmer participation. Signups are not yet open, with ASCS offices preparing for early 1966 participation in food grains, wheat, and cropland adjustments. Participants divert at least 20 percent of feed grain base acreage to conserving uses and receive income payments and loan eligibility. Yields used for payments will reflect current trends, no diversion payment for small bases, higher payments for extra diversions, price supports up, loan rate cut for corn and sorghum, but total payments rise with full participation.
