The Agriculture Department ended its wheat export subsidy, setting export prices higher as domestic prices rose. The move followed large Soviet buys that had kept domestic prices elevated and reduced subsidies in steps since July. The new price for hard red winter wheat at Gulf ports rose to about 2.44 per bushel, aligning export and domestic prices.
