Nifty series of articles from Life Magazine that shows a program in transition from first national farm policy during the New Deal, to the current framework of farm policies implemented in the early 1970s under the Nixon administration:
30 Nov 1959 (Weakest of the three articles, this is more a collection of short statements and pictures but does give some background that's good to know when reading the other two installments.)
7 Dec 1959 (A nice write up of a mid-sized, relatively diversified Iowa farm.)
14 Dec 1959 (Contains the most "wonky" details of the issues of the day.)
