Kennedy seeks $6.6 billion farm budget for 1964
President Kennedy asked Congress for a nearly 6.6 billion dollar Agriculture Department budget for fiscal 1964, down about 928 million from the current year. The reduction, largely due to anticipated surplus cotton sales, would rely more on private funding for price support loans, lower storage costs, and private lenders for Home Administration loans, while farm services would not be reduced.
