AlB—Lancaster Faming, Saturday, October IS, 1983
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S.
Senate October 7, by a voice vote,
passed the Dairy and Tobacco
Adjustment Act of 1963. The bill
provides for modifications to both
the Federal dairy price support
program and the Federal tobacco
program.
“This bill makes comprehensive
changes in both of these com
modity programs,’’ said Senator
Jesse Helms, Chairman of the
Agriculture Committee. “For
dairy, it means supply and demand
will be brought more into balance.
Hopefully, we can now stop
building massive government
surpluses of dairy products and
start reducing government
outlays.”
“The changes made in the
tobacco program are both
significant and tar reaching. By
freezing the price support, we will
help make our tobacco farmers
more competitive in world
markets. The changes in the lease
and transfer provisions will
disarm critics of the tobacco
program and ensure the sound
continuation of the program for
years to come.”
The dairy provisions
Include; "
1) Lowering the price support
from $13.10 to $12.60 per hun
dredweight between the first
month after date of enactment and
September 30, 1965, except that a)
on March 31,1985, the price may be
reduced 50 cents if estimated
