Survey: Farm-State Voter Reaction to Federal Spending Priorities

What do farm-state voters want budget priorities for the United States Department of Agriculture to be? To answer that question Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research Inc. of Washington, D.C., and Greener and Hook of Arlington, Virginia, undertook a public opinion survey June 27-30, 2005, that included 900 registered voters in Kansas, Minnesota and Iowa. Nearly two-thirds of the voters resist future cuts in federal commodity subsidy programs for wheat, corn, soybeans, rice and cotton. However, more than a two-to-one margin of the voters in these states support limiting direct payments to single farms to no more than $250,000.
