from increased tran
sportation costs, availability
of new or expanded soybean
processing facilities in some
areas, and location of crop in
relation to river tran
sportation.
In the 10 major soybean
producing States with more
than 80 percent of U. S.
output, changes from 1073-
crop county loan rates in
about half of the 880 counties
in the area range from in
creases of two cents per
bushel to decreases of two
cents per bushel. Rates are
unchanged in about one-third
of the counties in the 10-State
area. In the remaining
counties in the area and the
U.S., changes range from
increases of four cents per
bushel to decreases of eight
cents per bushel in a few
counties.
Rates for the counties are
based on the national
average loan level of $2.25
per bushel for 1974-crop
soybeans as announced Aug.
29, 1973, (see USDA press
release 2677-73). The $2.25
per bushel national average
loan level is unchanged from
last year and is for soybeans
containing 12.8 to 13.0 per
cent moisture and grading
not lower than No. 2 on the
factors of test weight, splits,
and heat damage, and No. 1
on all other factors. Support
will be at the rates for the
counties where woybeans
are stored.
The premium and discount
schedule is unchanged from
that used for the 1973-crop
program.
Copies of county rates will
be sent to state Agricultural
Stabilization and Con
servation Service offices in
states where soybeans are
produced. Copies also may
be obtained from the Cotton,
