Wool Growers Asked for Ideas on Wool Incentive and Marketing Year
Wool producers are invited to submit views on the 1963 incentive level for shorn wool and on moving the wool marketing year from April 1 to March 31 to a calendar year. Submissions due by September 4 to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Livestock Dairy and Poultry Division. The current incentive is 62 cents per pound, with prices recently higher, potentially boosting lamb and wool production. Concerns over March 31 as peak shearing season have prompted the year change discussion. SEE OUR New Flower Line for Weddings and Birth Announcements.
