Farmers Compete In Wrong Place, Economist Tells Conservation Crowd
Kansas State University economist Barry Flinchbaugh addressed about 250 people at the Franklin County Conservation District annual meeting. He urged farmers to base decisions on economics rather than taxes and to compete with each other rather than Uncle Sam. He discussed farm programs, decoupling payments, and the shift of meat and flour industries, stressing that the farm economy will improve as raw materials, consumption, and transportation factors favor Kansas.
