CCC Corn Sales Rise Amid Tight 1965 Supply
Corn sales by the Commodity Credit Corporation more than double from the prior year with totals near 390 million bushels between October 1964 and August 1965. The rise results from a smaller 1964 crop and higher expected utilization, while 1965–66 carryover sits around 1.1 billion bushels. Wool prices are also expected to rise late 1965 into early 1966 due to higher mill use, lower world output, and shipping delays.
