Kansas Farm Bill Faces Political Games Over Credit Aid
Kansans on the House Agriculture Committee warn that partisan moves on agricultural credit threaten the 1985 farm bill. Rep. Pat Roberts calls it a bad omen as Reagan vetoes a credit package. Dan Glickman says the tone is anti farmer. Roberts aims a pared down measure to advance crop loans if credit aid stalls, amid debate over Farm Credit System restructuring.

Conservation Supporters Gain Strength
Washington AP reports growing protests from conservationists over Reagan budget cuts to soil and water programs. The plan would shrink the Soil Conservation Service from 14 156 to about 537 in the coming year, with further reductions by 1987 including removal of government cost sharing for farmer conservation projects. National Association of Conservation Districts leader Milton Mekelburg says farmers are stressed and erosion threatens land, while the NACD newsletter outlines a budget where agriculture receives 8 percent of the 16 percent for all other activities and soils/ environment only 4 percent. He argues the cure targets the problem, not the whole federal deficit.
