New Farm Program To Cost Less Money
President Eisenhower told Congress the administration plan including a soil bank to reduce production and dispose of surpluses would cost less than current year outlays. Projected agriculture spending for the next fiscal year is 3.364 billion, with potential adjustments if actual costs differ. The plan would raise direct farm payments while cutting surpluses and retiring over 40 million acres from cropping to realign markets toward peacetime stability.

Eisenhower Budget Aims Shift in Farm Support Costs
The President’s budget projects farm price stabilization at 1.591 billion dollars next year, down from 2.076 billion this year, offset by 450 million for new programs including soil bank payments to take land out of production and a milk in school program. Subsidies under the soil bank would derive mainly from existing stock, affecting CCC valuations a year ahead. Other farm expenditures stay similar to this year, with boosts for research and specific programs such as sugar, conservation, and rural electrification.
