Roberts Forecasts Pain in Farm Belt from Gramm Rudman
Rep. Pat Roberts of Kansas warns the Gramm Rudman budget law will bring substantial cuts to agriculture. He cites $11.7 billion in cuts with $1.3 billion from Agriculture and $824 million from the Commodity Credit Corporation, risking lower income guarantees and harder farm loans. He warns of 1987 further cuts and urges credit aid alongside a new farm bill and Farm Credit bailout.
