Vote Changes in the Haugen Farm Aid Bill
The House Agriculture Committee voted to amend the Haugen farm relief bill by deferring the equalization fee for two years and raising the revolving fund from 250 million to 350 million dollars. Prices would be kept at world quota plus the import tariff, funded by the revolving fund for two years, then the fee would apply to early sales of wheat, cotton, corn, cattle and swine. The move gained support from corn belt representatives and farm groups seeking subsidy avoidance.
