Virginia Farm Body
Outlines Plans For
Stablization of Price
Systematic Marketing Of
Peanuts Through Storage
Plan Is Proposed
Working through their Farm Bu
reau . Federation, Virginia peanut
growers are busy planning for a
profitable season this year, accord
ing to the South Side Virginia News.
A government-controlled storage
program, instead of the oil-diver
sion program, as a means of stabil
izing peanut prices was recommend
ed to Secretary Wallace a few days
ago by the peanut committee of the
Virginia farm organization.
The proposal is for "insurance a
gainst too low and too high prices,
with the ultimate aim of stabilized
price on farmers stock peanuts ap-,
proaching the parity price as close
ly as practical, which will afford the
peanut farmer the living to which
he is entitled."
The recommendations made by
the neighboring state farmers are:
"After careful study and consid
eration of the present peanut situ
ation and in light of many years of
experience with the peanut indus
try, we, the peanut committee of
the Virginia Farm Bureau Federa
tion do respectfully request the
careful consideration and recom
mend adoption of a peanut control
plan embodying the following
points:
Controlled supply of peanuts
going into edible channels of trade
by a government-controlled stor
age program instead of the oil di
version program.
"2r Determination of the produc
tion from peanut picker reports,
which is the only source for au
thentic information, as quickly as
possible after each harvesting sea
son.
"3 After getting the production
from peanut picker reports, the de
termination by the proper official
or committee of what per cent of
the total crop should be stored un
der a property controlled plan.
"4. Only farmers cooperating
with the soil conservation program
to be allowed to participate in this
storage program.
"5. The establishment of a very
strong commodity loan oq the pea
nuts in controlled storage.
"6. A controlled and ayjtematic
marketing of the stored peanuts
late in the year, just prior to har
vesting of next crop, only in case
the. price equals or is higher than
the price determined by the proper
official or committee, below which
these peanuts cannot go into chan
nels of edible trade.
"7. The crushing into oil of any
unsold portion of the said stored
peanuts only after the following
year's crop has been harvested, of
ficial production figures form peanut
picker reports made available and
the declaration by the proper of
ficials that the new crop is ample
to prevent any shortage before the
next harvest season
"In "regard to points three and
four we wish to state that should it
be determined that 85 percent of a
certain crop will be sufficient for
the edible channels of trade, leav
ing a surplus of 15 percent, then
30 to 25 percent of the crop should
be put in controlled storage in or
der to be certain of preventing a
depressed market due to any sur
plus. It can be carefully estimated
from the 1934 and 1935 peanut con
tracts and the 1936 soil conservation
compliance just what percent of the
crop Is represented by growers co
operating with the soil conservation
program. It can be then determin
ed what percent of the crops grown
by cooperators must be stored in
order to give the desired percent of
the total crop; e. g., In order to store
20 percent of the total crop, it
might take 30 percent of the crop
grown by cooperators with the soil
conservation program
"In regard to points five, six and
seven, we wish to state that the
loan figure must be as high as the
minimum price set for the stored
peanuts and that a crushing pay
ment be figured on the surplus that
will guarantee the cooperating pro
ducer just a little more for his
stored peanuts-than he received for
the rest of his crop."
The statemen concludes with the
assurance that the committee and
the Federation stand ready to co
operate with the Secretary to the
limit "on developing and establish
ing a peanut program so necessary
for the welfare of the peanut grow
ers " ? 1
