National Grange fears farmer scapegoat in price hearings
At Price Commission hearings on rising food costs, the National Grange warned farmers are being made scapegoats.

He cited data showing farm prices lagging as retail food costs climb, and called hard costs driving prices up while farm prices fluctuate.
