Farmers Union backs federal marketing plan in Nebraska
The Farmers Union state board endorses active support for the federal marketing scheme and offers the National Grain commission’s facilities to the Farmers National Grain corporation while preserving existing policies. A related resolution by the Farmers Union cooperative elevator federation approves coordinating with the state board to join the national grain group, contingent on maintaining agency identity and growth in the grain territory. Delegates rejected affiliation with the national grain agency but backed merging Sioux City, Omaha and St Joseph livestock markets with the national group.
