Federal Price Support of Corn Set for Maryland

The Maryland Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee announces a preliminary federal corn price support of 1.17 per bushel for this year, down from 1.23 last year and 1.531 in 1958. Supports issued via loans or purchase agreements may rise by Oct. 1 if parity changes, with Maryland typically selling corn commercially rather than delivering to the government. Because Maryland is a feed deficit state, Midwest corn is shipped in to meet demand, ensuring local producers earn near the Chicago price plus freight.
