International Wheat Deal Chances Good

Agriculture Secretary Bob Bergland said the United States has better than a half chance to reach an international wheat agreement. He cited a London meeting planned for late September or early October and warned the U.S. could sell grain aggressively if no deal is reached. Bergland noted his loan-rate powers give leverage to win support for the pact. He spoke to about 20 town farm leaders in Council Bluffs Iowa, tying export prospects to trouble in the Russian spring wheat crop and predicting a bullish market if mandatory acreage reductions pass in the new farm bill. He urged farmers to store grain under price supports and hold it back as improved times loom.
