Deficiency payment checks to arrive by April fifteenth
ASCS officials estimate final February prices by March 29 and begin processing deficiency payments shortly after. Farmers can calculate their payment by multiplying acres grown by the official yield and the per bushel rate. Checks travel from Kansas City to county offices for inspection before mailing. Signups for the 1985 Feed Grain program were extended to month end by Agriculture Secretary John Black.
