It cites high farm costs, credit woes, and an inefficient marketing system as barriers to income gains, urging antitrust action and closer farm city cooperation during the February Washington convention. Farmers face a tough credit system, high interest rates, and transport costs amid a powerful agri business complex. The NFU plans meetings with Congress and foreign embassies to push farm-city problem solutions.
