Wool Price Support Is
Pegged At 62 Cents
/ . .
The price support or incentive
price available to Watauga wool
growers* will be 62 cents per
pound In 1960, according^o Vau
ghn Tugman, Chairman of the
County Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Committee.
This wool incentive price is es
tablished under provisions of the
National Wool Act of 1994, which
directs the Secretary of Agricul
ture to take into consideration
prices paid and other cost condi
tions affecting sheep production
in determining a support price
that will encourage an annual pro
duction of 300 million pounds of
shorn wool.
The 1960 price of 42 cents per
pound is the same price that was
in, effect during the first 5 years
of ASC's wool program, running
from 1909 through 1999. Accord
ing to Tugman, production ?f
shorn wool is slowly but surely ap
proaching the 300 million pound
goal set by the law. Estimated
19S9 production is 292 million
pounds. This is the largest amount
produced sine* 1946 and compares
to 234 million pounds in IMS, the
first year of the wool payment
program. #
Incentive payments to producers
will be made by the ASC county
office for the 1960 marketing year
following (he same methods that
have been employed during prior
years. Shorn wool payments will
be equal to a percentage of each
producer's cash returns from wool
sales. The percentage will be that
requirea to raise the national
average price received by all pro
ducers for shorn wool up to the
incentive price of 62 cents per
pound.
