Kerstetter wants changes
in livestock payment bill
HARRISBURG -
Agriculture Secretary
Raymond J. Kerstetter has
sent letters to Penn
sylvania’s congressional
delegation to amend certain
sections of a livestock
payment bill recently in-
STATE SPONSORED - GRADED
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 3,1976
troduced into the U. S.
Senate.
Kerstetter observed that
the intent of the bill to amend
the Packers and Stockyards
Act of 1921, S. 1532, was good.
“The livestock producer for
years has been victimized by
delayed payments or
bankruptcies of packers,”
said Kerstetter. “We cer
tainly have needed a bill that
guarantees a livestock
producer gets paid for what
he sells. But this bill needs
strengthening to do the job.”
In bis letter to Penn
sylvania’s U. S. represen
tatives and senators, Ker
stetter wrote:
“I urge you support
deletion of Section 603, S.
1532, amending the Packers
and Stockyards Act of 1921.1
also urge strengthening of
Section 601 to guarantee
prompt payment to livestock
producers.
“Pennsylvania’s livestock
producers need all the
protection they can get
nowadays and S. 1532 with
the aforementioned changes,
along with clarification of
Section 408 on bonding would
serve that end.”
Section 603 of the bill
removes the right of any
state to impose bonding or
pr o m_p t payment

requirements on a dealer or
packer. Kerstetter felt this
section was designed for the
convenience of big interstate
packers. He insisted that
states must retain the power
to protect livestock
producers selling at in
trastate markets.
Section 601 requires
payments to be made within
24 hours of a sale. It also
gives both parties the right
to waive this requirement if
agreed to beforehand.
Kerstetter said this
provision would permit the
continuation of some of the
abuses that have levehd
livestock producers.
Specifically, buyers can play
producers against each
other, extracting delayed
payment agreements which
then pose the threat of huge
losses to producers.
“In effect the prompt
payment provision is
negated by section 601,”
Kerstetter explained. “We
want the law to be dear that
title to any livestock or
carcass cannot pass hands
until payment is received by
the producer.”
Kerstetter said that
Section 408 of the bill, which
covers bonding, is too non
specific and, therefore,
inadequate.

also participated in
