Jute bag tax abolished amid farm produce price relief
Senator Pope of Idaho announced the Agricultural Adjustment Administration removed the compensatory tax on burlap bags used for wheat, potatoes, and onions. The tax would not apply to new bags but remains on existing floor stocks. Pope plans a bill to repeal the levy on stocks on hand with AAA support. Pacific Northwest legislators have pressed for removal, noting about 25 million bags used annually and a roughly $500,000 yearly impact.
