Farm program explained
More cash flow possible
ANAHUAC - To provide
farmers with additional cash
flow, LawRence H. Campbell,
executive director of the Cham-
bers County Agricultural Stabil-
ization and Conservation Ser-
vice, said advance payments are
being offered during the signup
for the 1988 wheat, feed grain
and rice acreage reduction pro-
grams.
Advance payments represent
40 percent of the estimated de-
ficiency payment rate for the
crop.
Deficiency payments are
made to farm program partici-
pants when the average market
price falls below the established
target price for a crop. Campbell
said target prices for 1988 are
$2.93 per bushel for corn, $2.78
for sorghum, and $4.23 for
wheat. The target price is $11.15
per hundredweight for rice.
Estimated deficiency pay-
ments rates per bushel are $1.10
for corn, $1.08 for sorghum, and
$1.53 for wheat. The projected
deficiency * payment rates are
$1.65 per hundredweight for rice.
“Advance deficiency pay-
ments will be equal to 40 percent
of the estimated deficiency pay-
ments rate,” Campbell said. He
said one-half of this amount will
be issued in cash at signup and
the balance in generic commod-
ity certificates this May.

Rice producers will get deficiency payments
420-2449
ANAHUAC — Rice producers bell, executive director of the'
who participated in the 1987 Chambers County Agricultural
acreage reduction program re- Stabilization and Conservation
ceived the remaining deficiency Service,
payments for these crops, ac- Generic commodity certifi-
cording to LawRence H. Camp- cates totaling about $4,500,000
have been issues to about 130
farmers in the county.
ASCS computes deficiency
payments by multiplying the
program yield for the farm by
WE ACCEPT YOUR FAIR CHARGE, VISA OR MASTERCARD
SAN JACINTO MALL • DAILY 10 TO 9, SUNDAY 12 TO 5:00 • BAY PLAZA • DAILY 10 TO 6, SUNDAY 1 TO 5
the payment acreage times the
payment rate.
The 1987 acreage reduction
program participants become
eligible for deficiency payments
when the national weighted av-
erage market price for rice dur-
ing the first five months of the
marketing year (August-Decem-
ber 1987) fell below the $11.66 per
hundredweight target price.
Nationally, farmers received
a five-month weighted average
price of $5.71 per hundredweight
for rice. Eligible producers re-
ceived $4.82 per hundredweight
for rice, Campbell said.
He said the payment rates
must equal the difference be-
tween the target price and the
higher of the average price or
the national average loan rates.
The loan rate for rice was $6.84
per hundredweight. The rice
loan rate is higher than the aver-
age price, therefore, the pay-
ment rate is based on the differ-
ence between the target price
and the loan rate.
“Some farmers requested ad-
vance deficiency payments
when they enrolled in the 1987
acreage reduction programs,”
said ASCS official Campbell, “so
final payments to those farmers
were reduced by the amount of
advance payments already re-
ceived.”
Producers may obtain more
information on rice deficiency
payments by contacting the
Chambers County ASCS Office.
Crop acreage
limits announced
ANAHUAC - With signup re-
cently opening for the 1988 farm
programs, LawRence H. Camp-
bell, County Executive Director
of the Chambers County Agricul-
tural Stabilization and Conser-
vation Service, reminds farmers
that limited cross compliance is
in effect for wheat, corn, sor-
ghum, barley, upland cotton and
rice.
“This means to be eligible for
price support loans, purchases
or payments for any of these
crops the acreage planted for
harvest on a farm may not ex-
ceed the crop acreage base for
these commodities,” he said.
Farmers who participate in
the programs at the maximum
level must reduce wheat acres
by 27.5 percent, corn and sor-
ghum by 20 percent, and rice by
25 percent. Cropland removed
from production by the pro-
grams will be placed in an acre-
age conservation reserve (ACR)
or devoted to conserving uses
(CU).
