Farm Surpluses Vanish In Wake Of War Demand
Washington reports the government’s $4 billion farm surplus problem disappeared as defense spending reduced stockpiles. Cotton butter cheese and other perishable goods were sold, leaving mainly storable items like wheat corn and tobacco. The government’s investments fell below $2.5 billion with a $430 million loss over 19 months, driven by dumping surplus potatoes and selling dried eggs and milk below cost. Also notes that 24 percent of fatal car accidents involved 18 to 24 year olds.
