Subsidies Slashed Yet Loopholes Remain In U.S. Farm Aid
Congress cut the 1974 ceiling on subsidy payments to major cotton and grain farmers to 20 000 per farmer for all three crops combined, from 55 000 per crop. It preserves a loophole by allowing planting allotment sales and leases to sidestep limits and orders the 1971 rule to ignore payments to farming corporations where the grower owns less than 50 percent.
