Wheat Growers Plan Expanded Market For Nebraska
The Nebraska Wheat Growers Association outlined a 1961 program to build larger markets by tailoring production and prices, stressing independence as a non commercial commodity group, expanding public relations, and year round member education funded by dues. Newly elected president John J Lienemann of Scottsbluff emphasized farmer representation and closer farm group cooperation in legislative efforts. The plan aims to raise farmer income and strengthen the agricultural economy through collaboration with like minded organizations.

Nebraska Oil-Gas Starts Set All-Time State Record
Nebraska’s 1960 oil and gas drilling activity set an all-time record as commission figures show 898 new oil-gas starts through November 12 with 38 days left. Production rose in early 1960 with July peaking at 2,150,655 barrels. Southwest Nebraska, Red Willow County Cambrian finds, Lake Pennsylvanian in Hitchcock County, and Sunray discovery boost hopes. Secondary recovery in the Panhandle adds about a quarter million barrels per month. Enders field shows dramatic gains from secondary recovery.
