Speculator Hit Hard by New Lineup Plan
Robert Fuller reports for Standard on April 8 that the Farm Bureau Federation adopted a grain marketing plan forming a National Grain Growers Cooperative Sales Agency. The plan aims to contract with local farmers and elevators, with a $100 million capitalization, to market grain through district centers and a farmer controlled finance and export structure.
