Farm Bureau opposes ag labor laws and seeks limits in future
The American Farm Bureau Federation at its 50th annual convention outlined a strategy to fight unionization of farm labor next year. It favored removing farm labor bargaining from the National Labor Relations Board if Congress considers a measure, while rejecting exemptions for small farmers and capping government payments. Delegates also urged studies on soybean promotion, anti strike measures in maritime work, farm strike insurance, and daylight saving time variations.
