Kansas farmers in any region may borrow up to 300 from the federal seed wheat fund, with a 1 to 11 bushel per acre guarantee, to be repaid by a pro rata crediting from the guarantee fund. Secretary Mohler says loans should be broadly distributed to avoid concentrating risk and to aid farmers lacking other resources.
