New Mexico Cattlemen seek tax cuts and aid to save industry
New Mexico cattle and sheep growers urged the state tax commission in Santa Fe to cut valuations on cattle by one fourth and set tax rates of $2 per adult sheep and $150 per young head. They backed the Panhandle plan to reallocate federal funds between dairy and beef sectors, halt canned meat imports for two years, and promote spaying heifers to cut calf production. The group proposed a graduated $6 to $8 per head payment for spayed heifers, financing restocking, and considered selling Russia 3–4 million young cows to ease prices. They cited $75 million federal meat purchases, with dairy receiving most funds, and called for broader redistributions.
