Brannan plan eyed to curb farm surplus crisis
Washington May 2 NEA The Commodity Credit Corporation holds large stockpiles of surplus potatoes eggs and milk bought under the 1948 Aiken Hope farm bill to prop up prices. Perishable dairy and eggs may be dried or dumped causing large losses. A pork surplus looms with 75 million dollars set aside to buy hogs and products, risking waste and odors. Brannan proposes a production payment replacing parity subsidies, keeping marketing rules while linking payments to a 10 year average price and permitting larger surplus carryovers for emergencies.
