Farm policy shifts eyed as 1956 aims announced
USDA forecasts no drop in household food costs for 1956 despite lower farm prices. Recommendations call for 2 percent fewer fresh spring vegetables and a 13 percent cut in early commercial spring potato output. Lawmakers on the Senate Agriculture Committee heard farmer complaints that current controls miss the mark and may prompt a congressional repair plan. Farmers urged production unit basing quotas and storage safeguards to curb surpluses, while Utah is labeled a tall corn state with emphasis on nitrogen and irrigation practices. Notes on truck signal lights becoming law by year start and safety merits highlight practical concerns for farmers and drivers alike.
