Wheat marketing quotas approved in three states for 1960 crop
Farmers across the three wheat states have approved marketing quotas for 1960 with two thirds needed for effectiveness. In Franklin county 81 percent of 151 voters backed quotas. With quotas, eligible farmers receive price-support loans at a national average of at least 1.77 per bushel, 75 percent of parity, while those exceeding allotments lose support and face penalties. The 1960 program continues the six crop run and local ASC offices will provide details on the soil bank conservation reserve after midseason.
