Was Wickard really about forbidding him to EAT his own wheat? I thought it was merely to grow in excess of the quota. The opinion in fact seems to say that the lower court failed to find out what the disposition of the grown corn was in fact, instead relying purely on the fact that he exceeded his quota. (I also thought it was wheat, not corn.) Biogon (talk) 04:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, I think you're right, but since you have to grow it before you can eat it, I'd say the result is the same. <grin> It's been a while since I read the opinion, but I believe Wickard's use for the grain was to feed his hogs. 24.6.66.193 (talk) 10:43, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
