Maryland Farmers Face 1954 Corn Price Support Rates
The USDA set 1954 crop corn minimum price support at $1.62 per bushel, 90 percent of parity, with commercial counties at full 90 percent and noncommercial counties at 75 percent. Loans and purchase agreements run through April 30, 1955, maturing May 31, 1955, and final Maryland rates will be announced in October based on parity. The national rate compares to $1.60 in 1953, and Maryland noncommercial figures are proportionally lower.
