Idaho Industry Drive Aims For Crop Reduction Plants
Frank K. Adams of Twin Falls urges Idaho counties to attract eastern industrialists to establish crop reduction plants across the state. He argues such plants would create jobs, protect farmers in low price years, reduce freight costs on raw crops, and enable finished products from Idaho crops through southern and western regional processing networks. Adams envisions coordinating eastern financiers with local citizen committees to develop plants in every district for dairying, livestock, grain, fruits, vegetables, wool, and lumber.
