French Officials See US Wheat Cut Costing 6 Billion
Paris officials estimate if the United States adopts a six cent per pound wheat price, the annual cost would reach six billion dollars. French farmers receive guaranteed subsidies of 825 a bushel, enabling flour sold to banks and then to consumers at about six cents a pound. Eggs and other foods also rise in price, with eggs at about 10 dollars a dozen and meat at 10 dollars a pound. The French ministry notes such US policy would require huge federal outlays.
