Cool Move On Wheat Subsidy Cuts
Washington AP The Agriculture Department cut wheat export subsidies by six cents a bushel this week to slow domestic price rises and curb overseas buying. The rate fell to 32 cents per bushel for hard red winter wheat from Gulf and Eastern ports, down from 38 cents last week. Officials said the government could no longer guarantee a fixed export price, a shift tied to rising U.S. market prices and large Soviet sales last month. If domestic prices stay high, exporters may charge more on the world market due to the tougher subsidy policy.
