Wool incentive payments set at 15.5 percent of wool sales
The Department of Agriculture reports shorn wool payments at 15.5 percent of last year’s cash returns, yielding $15.8 per $100 for wool. A 33 cent payment applies to unshorn lambs to deter premarket shearing, with deductions for promotional activities. Payments began after July 1 for wool sold April 1, 1957 to March 31, 1958, with eligibility tied to lambs never being shorn.
