Wool incentive price set for 1955 marketing year
An incentive price of 62 cents per pound for shorn wool grease basis has been set for the 1955 marketing year. Payments will be made only when the national average market price falls below the incentive level, with growers required to maintain detailed sale records to support claims. Payments will be distributed as a uniform percentage of the national sales price, and thus higher individual sales raise total returns. however, payouts cannot occur until the 1955 clip is marketed, likely in summer 1956. Authorities note administrative details are pending official instructions. Francis Kutish of Iowa State College cites lag in early pullet purchases but anticipates better egg prices in late spring.
