Kennedy Signs Farm Surplus Bill

President Kennedy signed a bill to cut grain surpluses and raise farmers’ income. It requires a 10 percent wheat planting cut next year with payments on 45 percent of normal yield, durum wheat exempt, and options to increase cuts for 1962 with 60 percent yield payments. Wheat quotas must be approved Aug 24 in a referendum. Corn, feed barley and grain sorghum face 20 percent below 1959-60 plantings to qualify for price supports, with a 50 percent yield payment incentive offered for acreage reductions. The measure shifts policy toward more government action to restrain output and stabilize prices, while avoiding full secretary-of-agriculture price-guarantee power. It aims to cut storage and price support costs amid a large grain surplus.
