Kansans Rally in D C for Farm Parity and Debt Relief

Ingram, a 70 year old Canton farmer, joins hundreds of Kansans in Washington for a week long rally and march to press for at least 70 percent parity, immediate mortgage foreclosure moratoriums, and long term farm legislation. Speakers include Rep Dan Glickman and Texas Agriculture Commissioner Jim Hightower as farmers emphasize shrinking incomes, high debts, and low crop prices.

Farmers Rally at USDA in Quiet March for Parity

About 700 to 900 farmers marched from the Jefferson Memorial to the Agriculture Department and the White House in Washington to demand farm parity programs. They planted 250 white crosses to mark farm bankruptcies as security kept watch amid earlier memories of 1978 and 1979 tractor protests.
