While difficult, this approach would leave sufficient funding in the commodities title to write a new farm program at such time as consensus can be achieved.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The three organizations reiterated their strong opposition to recoupling payments to planted acres under a price-based program.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cA similar program during the 1980s caused major planting distortions when market prices fell below target prices,\u201d they wrote. \u201cThe resulting production surpluses for certain crops required supply controls, including acreage set-asides and the Farmer Owned Reserve, which undercut producer income and disadvantaged U.S. exports in world markets.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>They noted that avoiding government-induced production surpluses and depressed domestic and world prices has reduced the vulnerability of U.S. farm programs to challenges under the WTO. They do not want to return to programs that could increase the likelihood of more lost trade cases, as occurred with the Brazil cotton complaint.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cIn the event a new farm bill includes a provision that would tie payments under a price-based program to current-year planted acres, and as stated in our letter of July 26, 2013, our organizations will oppose its enactment.
