Commodity Credits To

ly created supply and price diff

ing is in line with USDA policy to
utilize certificate corn to moder
ate the impact of feed grain sup
ply adjustment during the trans
ition to more realistice relation
ship between supply and demand.
These sales should have little
effect on producers of 1960-crop
corn because much of the crop
has been marketed or has passed
out of producers hands, particu-
larly in the affected areas.
AS the certificate corn sales OPP
Grafton progresses, coOperators in
the 1861 feed grain program will
be assured of price protection at
the new support rate through
price support loans and purchase
agreements on their 1861 corn pro-
duction
The certificate corn to be offer
ed was originally made available

feed grain program as payments
in-kind to Offset income loss
through diversion of feed grain
acreages to bring supplies into
better balance with needs. Many
farmers exercised the option of
designating CCC as their agent in
marketing the grain and took cash
instead. Through sale of the
grain, CCC will recover the mon
ely advanced to program compli-
erS.
The present corn support level
for 1960-crop corn remains at
$1.06 per bushel, national average,
but will rise to $120 per bushel
on the 1861 crop. effective October
l. The 1861 grain sorghum sup
port rate of $193 per hundred
weight, national average al cents
per hundredweight above the 1860
rate) was set in lire with the corn
support price on a feeding value
relationship and went into effect
July l.
Major purposes of the 1861 feed
grain program, which has been
extended for the 1862 crop by the
| Agricultural Act of 1861, are to
stop the wasteful buildup of feed
grain stocks, to effect a net saw
ing in Federal expenditures, and
to safeguard livestock producers
against chaotic conditions arising
| from excessive feed production.
Indications are that as result
! of the feed grain program, pro-
duction will be at least 700 mill
lion bushels less than if the prev
ious program had been continued.
Every bushef not produced and
kept out of CCC ownership will
save approximately S1.10 per bush

tation and interest charges which
otherwise would be paid out dur
