ASCS News

Producers with Commodity Credit Corporation price support loans must obtain authorization from the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service office before commingling, rotating, moving or selling loan grain.
Penalties will be imposed when loan grain is removed or disposed of before repayment or before a release authorization is obtained from the ASCS office. To avoid administrative penalties and liquidated damages, farmers should contact the office for specific details before moving any farm-stored grain.
The price support loan program authorizes loans to farmers who hold their grain off the market to benefit from future price increases. The grain under loan is then stored in an approved facility on the farm or in a commercial warehouse.
The ASCS office also reminds farmers that is is their responsibility to maintain the quality of grain under loan. Regular inspections of farmstored grain are particularly important during warm weather months.
