Extend Loan Maturity Date For Wheat, Grains The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has an­ nounced that all 1976 crop wheat and feed grain loans which mature prior to Oct. 31, 1977, may be extended to that date at the option of the producer. By extending loan maturity dates, USDA will give farmers the option of con­ tinuing to hold their grain in hopes of higher market prices. There wUl be no allowance for storage during the- extension period. t. Feed grains include barley, com, oats, rye and\ sorghum. Under commodity Loan programs, producers borrow money from the Commodity Credit corporation (CCC) of­ fering their crops as collat The loans are "nonrecourse" which means that when the loan matures, producers either repay the loan plus interest in cash or forfeit the commodity to CCC. CCC loans usually mature after one year and are therefore known as "an­ niversary" loans. In practice, the loan rate becomes the minimum price that a producer will receive for the crop, since the producer generally will not redeem grain under loan if the market price is below the loan rate. Loans give , producers the opportunity to obtain cash while holding their crops for lata* sale and to benefit from possible price increases that often come later in the season after harvest. By holding a crop, market gluts, extreme price swings and tran­ sportation bottlenecks are minimized to a great extent by sp read ing commodi ty marketings over the entire year. - CCC loans are administered by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation' service (ASCS). Farmers who wish to extend the maturity date of their loan should con­ tact the McHenry county ASCS office, 1143 North Seminary avenue, P.O. Box 168, Wood­ stock, 111. 60098.
