Excerpt from Policy Alternatives to the Food Security Act of 1985: Hearings Before the Subcommittee on Wheat, Soybeans, and Feed Grains of the Committee on Agriculture, House of Representatives, One Hundredth Congress, First Session As I understand the proposals which will be presented today by Deputy Secretary Myers, the proposals have three components: one, the adoption of the concept to all commodities; two, the reduction of target prices by 10 percent per year, and, three, the reduction of loan rates by 10 percent per year.
