Freeman May Provide Aid for Wheat Farmers
Washington reports that Agriculture Secretary Orville Freeman may add 200 to 300 million dollars to the 1964 wheat crop value by activating a plan tied to a 1964 feed grain program. Experts say substitution could raise program costs by about 11 million and cushion wheat prices, with details requiring farmers to enroll in the feed grain program and idle roughly 20 percent of their 1959 60 plantings. Price supports would fall to 1.25 per bushel for 1964 unless farmers participate.
