The Agricultural Act of 1970
The House Agriculture Committee voted on new farm legislation on July 21, 1970. The bill would become effective on the expiration of the existing Food and Agriculture Act of 1965, December 31, 1970. The bill was a bipartisan effort between Chairman Poage (D-Tex.) and the Ranking Minority Member Page Belcher (R-Okla.), but it does not embrace all of the objectives of the National Farm Coalition. The vote on substituting the new bill for the old one failed 21-13.
