Strongly agree

Yes, but only as a temporary measure to stabilize prices

Eisenhower's administration did use subsidies as a tool to stabilize prices in the agricultural sector. The Agricultural Act of 1954, for example, was designed to manage surplus and stabilize prices. Therefore, he would likely agree with this statement.

Agree

Yes, but only small local farms instead of large corporations

Disagree

Yes, but only for organic farms
