Relaxed Wheat Price Support Extends To Lightweight Grain
Don Rapp, head of the ASC office, reports Agriculture Department has loosened 1961 crop wheat price support rules to cover lightweight wheat. The notice allows sample grade light wheat with min test weight 40 pounds per bushel to receive support with discounts of 4 to 6 cents per pound, stacking with existing 9 cent No 5 grade deductions. Rapp notes similar actions in 1954 1957 1959 and 1960 and urges further rule changes for penalty wheat substitutions. The county office must still require prior year substitute wheat to meet old standards.
