Farm Bill Amendment Aims to Expand Corn Plantings
In Washington a Senate debate centers on Sen. Hickenlooper’s proposal to raise corn plantings this year from 43 million to 56 million acres in the midwestern belt by rescinding the Agriculture Department’s order. The 1956 price support remains 81 percent parity. Farmers must retire 15 percent of average corn acres to qualify, with land eligible for soil bank payments. the measure lasts only for this year and a 1957 referendum would set future production and price support terms. Sen. Price Daniel suggests pegging feed grain prices to corn support levels across regions.
