Land Retirement Plan Aims to End Output of Small Farms
The Committee for Economic Development proposes a land retirement plan to shift small farms out of production and reduce surpluses. It urges a major overhaul of soil bank procedures, moving from income price supports to free markets and a limited transition period with gradual price support cuts. The aim is to help chronically poor farmers switch to other employment while protecting commercial farmers from uncontrollable forces.
