Wool men seek price guarantee
Two Federal woolgrower groups in Sydney agreed to push for a government price guarantee scheme for wool at 40 cents a pound. The joint decision by the Australian Woolgrowers and Shaglers Council and the Australian Wool and Meat Producers Association calls for a prefiscal payment plan lasting the selling seasons, with annual reviews and no interference with the Wool Commission. Estimated cost to the government is between 160 and 200 million dollars over three years, after which the scheme may end.
