Wool Marketing

Year Ends Dec. 31

Producers were reminded this week that the 1965 marketing year under the wool program ends December 31. According to H. S. Barksdale, chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, this means that payments for the current 1965 year will depend on completing all details of marketing either wool of lambs by that date. Marketing completed after Dec. 31, 1965, will become marketings in the 1966 marketing year, and thus not eligible for payments until early 1967. The Chairman urges produc- . ers to make sure that all details of the 1965 sales are completed not later than Dec. 31. This includes passing title to the buyer, delivering the wool to the buyer, and having available all the information needed to determine the buyer’s total purchase price. Applications for the 1965 mar keting year payments under the National Wool Act may be filed with the ASCS County office any time, but the Chairman said “the sooner the better." Incentive payments under the wool program are based on the average national price for marketings during the whole year, and this can be determined more exactly if reports on mar k^tings are complete. ASCS is making a special effort to have all applications filed before Jan. 31, 1966. Payments for the 1965 marketing year will likely begin in April of next year.
