Greene County Farmers Benefit From Wheat Loan Rules
Under the 1941 wheat loan program Greene county farmers within allotment may receive 1.05 loans on wheat. Basil D. Archer, Greene county Triple-A chairman, announced the new rate which is 35 cents higher than last year and aligns with the 55 percent parity loan law giving an expected wheat price near 90 cents a bushel. New rates for rye and barley were also announced. Loans are available to farmers who exceed acreages but stay under quotas, at 60 percent of the regular rate on excess wheat, three percent interest, callable on demand, and due by April 30, 1942, with a December 31 expiration date.
