ford said that Penn State Uni
versity’s appropriations for
agricultural research went from
$19,268,000 to $17,268,000.
PSU research had received a $1
million boost last year and now
gets a $2 million cut.
“There is no question that we
will be confering with Penn
State University and the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania to dis
cuss that funding and any steps
that may be necessary to
address that situation,” Craw
ford said.
Miller said that the House
and Senate are apparently not
too far apart in criticism of the
budget.
“Basically, we had identified
the same basic concerns with
the governors proposal. But
there are a couple other areas of
concern. .
“The Farm Show transfer
fund, which has been reduced
from $1 million down to
$650,000. It has been budgeted
at $1 million for as long as I can
remember,” Miller said.
“At first blush, the farm com
munity may say, ‘What impact
does that have on us?
“It will because the leases for
several agricultural shows held
there will be affected.
“So far, the costs of operating
were reduced because the
(Farm Show) management was
good and able to do a good job
and reduce it. But to cut their
budget because they are doing
job is punishment instead of a
reward for good managment.
“The junior dairy show, the
4-H horse and pony show, Key
stone International Livestock
Exposition and the All-
American Show, may be forced
into paying higher fees for rent
ing space when they come to
host the show next year. That
will have a ripple effect that
will impact on farmers,” Miller
said.
Furthermore, Miller attacked
a proposed cut in funding which
Casey has repeatedly made in
his proposed budgets.
“The $40,000 that Gov.
Casey, in his infinite wisdom,
has tried to take away from the
FFA Foundation, which is basi
cally a youth organization, cer
tainly seems unwise.
“That is puling $40,000 not
only into our farm youth, but he

shouTfrrecognize that the state’s
largest FFA organization is in
Philadelphia. We think it is
unwise to drop the money from
support of some of the urban
youth and put into a drug rehab
program somewhere else. We
think it is well spent as it is and
needs to be continued.”
“Going back to the farm
show, his justification, similar
to the milk marketing board, is
trying to convince the public
that this is a move for self
sufficiency. But they are taking
money that is taken in from the
Farm Show and asking the
commission just to drop those
in the general fund.
“Not only do we have to dis
agree with reducing the Farm
Show budget lor 1991-92, but
in the present fiscal year he’s
targeting 5859,000 from their
funds. So he’s costing the Farm
Show almost SI million as it
celebrates it’s 75th anmversay;
which is not a very nice birth
day present.”
