Study finds shifting wheat production heartland in Nebraska
As Other Editors See It examines county by county results on the 1963 Nebraska wheat marketing quotas vote. Western counties mostly reject the plan while central and eastern areas back quotas, revealing a misalignment between where wheat is grown and where quotas are enforced. The piece argues surplus stems from eastern production and calls for concentrating wheat farming where it is a major crop. It notes 17 western counties failed to meet two thirds and five of them, including Dawes, had no simple majority, while seven counties gave 100 percent support.
