Agriculture Secretary Richard Lyng urged wheat producers to reject mandatory government controls to raise prices. He warned such quotas could shrink U S sales, hurt world markets, and ripple into other commodities. The non-binding poll begins June 18 with ballots due by July 7 for about 1.9 million farmers and others sharing in wheat proceeds.

Farmers and ranchers in the 10th Federal Reserve District faced elevated business closures with 4.5 percent exiting, a liquidation rate of 3.1 percent, and partial asset sales at 5.4 percent across the fourth quarter of 1985 and first quarter of 1986. Land values declined more slowly, and interest rates fell, suggesting tighter but stabilizing credit conditions.
