Oilseeds and Cottonseed Oil May Hit Billion Dollar Mark
US exports of oilseeds and products including cottonseed soybean and cottonseed oils and meal may reach a billion dollar mark in the year ending Oct 1. Foreign sales last season were a record 852 million dollars, aiding farmers across the Midwest and South regions. The textile industry seeks extension of the cotton stabilization payments aiding mill purchases. The American Textile Manufacturers Institute says the program, begun last April, sustains a prosperous year and may be renewed before 1965 ends. Domestic beet sugar industry will have enough beets to meet its 1965 quota even if no additional beets are grown.
