Wheat Growers Urged by PMA To Store Crop
Franklin county PMA chair Harry Knapp urges wheat farmers to store part of this year’s crop to use price supports. He notes about one third of the harvest goes to market in July and August, straining shipping and prices. A stored crop can secure a price support loan or purchase agreement at at least 90 percent of parity, with possible sale if market prices rise above the loan rate.
