Wisconsin Leads In Standardized Labeling And Farm Power
State Market Agent notes Wisconsin's sweeping labeling law gives the Department of Markets broad powers to set standards for all state packed foods. It claims Wisconsin produces 70 percent of U.S. cheese, ships 9 million bushels of potatoes, and markets half the nation’s peas under strict grades. The piece contrasts private and public farmer organization with alleged profit-concentrating middlemen and questions overall farm prosperity despite reports of national agricultural gains. It cites Governor- or Market Agent Spence on overhead and returns, urging reform to aid farmers against big corporations.
