Congress Debates Food Aid Cuts as Farm Subsidy Rebalance
Senior Republicans in both chambers back modest farm subsidy reductions as an alternative to deep cuts. Bush seeks to lower maximum subsidies from 360000 to 250000 and cut all farm payments by 5 percent while closing loopholes. Chambliss cites nutrition and conservation savings as painless paths, noting food stamps face scrutiny but not heavy waste. House and Senate budgets trim Ag spending before votes next week.
