Growers are eligible this year
for incentive payments Daseu ii
62 cents a pound for shorn wool,
grease basis, that is sneareu ancj
January 1 and marketed after
April 1.
Wool nroducers who shear be-
.uwn .lamiarv 1 and April 1 must
retain ownership of the wool until
after April 1 to be eligible for
;r,ti,o navments. 1 ne wuui
may be stored in commercial
warehouses or consigned tor iu-
ture sale, but the owner must
keep title to it until April 1.
The economist also suggests
that any wool growers still hold
ing 1954 clip might consider Com
modity Credit Corporation non
recourse loans. Loan values have
been above market prices recent
it, Qorrotarv of Aericulture, Ezra
Taft Renson has announced that
such CCC loans will be available
until April 30 to protest growers
in selling the balance oi me isai
clip.
Thomas savs the 1955 incentive
payment program encourages the
individual producer xo sen ms
wnnl for the best possible price.
Payments will be calculated as a
ncrrentace of the individuals nei
sales proceeds. For example, if
the incentive price of 62 cents is
20 percent above the national
average price of, wool sold mis
year, the payment made to each
eligible producer will be 20 per
cent of his own net sales proceeds
for wool.
Payment will not be based on
trie oinerence ooiwut.i u.-- i'"" lpird prourj

words, says Thomas, the better
the sale the bigger the bonus.
