Purdue economist William D. Dobson told the Agriculture Department outlook conference that no strong relief for farmers is likely in 1985. He noted potential aid from dollar declines or world supply shifts but doubted a large drop in real interest rates. Dobson described two possible paths for a 1985 farm bill, including small tweaks to loan rates and credits, with caution that a market oriented program may not materialize.
