Maryland Farm Programs Highlight State Involvement
Maryland's farm front features indirect gains from a 9000 ton ammonium nitrate boost borrowed from the Army and repayment later. Wheat loan program profits for 569 Maryland growers total about 180000, with rising market prices benefiting most sellers. The International Wheat Agreement outlines a five year market with fixed ceilings and floors, plus export commitments. Federal aid to Maryland school lunches exceeds 3.5 million pounds of food and 700000 dollars, aiding over 85000 children this year.
