anothei long-term gram
agreement
•"Irrespective of the Reagan
Administration to 'lift the Carter
gram embargo’,” Mullins stressed
that "...the January 4, 1960, em
bargo announcement looms large
in Soviet considerations about the
importance of the American gram
market. And these questions grow
larger each day with ‘con
tradictory statements’ and delays
and lack of official com
munications about a date and
place for attempting to negotiate
another US-USSR grain
agreement.”
During the visit of Mullins’and
Hall to Moscow, they were briefed
by high-level Soviet officials about
recent Soviet commitments to
allocate - increased resources to
and to de-centrahze management
decision about agricultural
production, procurement and
distribution for domestic and
imported agricultural products.
According to them, "such
decisions are not only a result of
the U.S. trade embargo m 1980,
they also reflect the uncertainty
about or the lack of any movement
from the United States to put into
place another US-USSR gram
agreement.”
Mullins also pointed out that the
Soviet Umon plans to commit
domestic resources to attempt to
reach certain average annual
production goals m the 1981-1980
period:
—Average annual grain
production at 40 million tons over
the 1976-1961 annual average of 200
million metric tons
—Average annual poultry
numbers to 3 billion units from the
1976-1981 average of about 2.S
billion
—Average red meat production
at more than 18 million tons, about
3 million tons more than the 1976-
1981 average
Coupled with past annual gram
harvests, any additional shortfalls
in domestic gram production will
only require the Soviet Umon to

turn to the international
marketplace to make up for any
shortfalls in agricultural
production to meet rising Soviet
demand, Mullins forecast.
"And such shortfall in grains,
poultry and meat production will
be purchased from countries
willing to demonstrate a com
mitment to be reliable trading
partners through long-term
agreements. Faced with record
U.S. corn and wheat production
and a record level of soybean
stocks in 1961,” the Shabborta,
Illinois, NCGA President stated,
"it is clearly tune to either nor
malize com trade relations with
the Soviet Umon or to demand
compensation payments for U.S.
com' farmers from the U.S.
Government for creating a climate
of uncertainty that will result in
future lost gram export sales to the
Soviet Union.
“If other dimensions and aspects
of overall U.S.-Soviet Union
relations are to be used at the
expense of Agriculture Secretary
Block’s commitment to improve
U.S. farm income from the in
ternational marketplace,” Bill
Mullins stated, “the ultimate loser
will be the U.S. Government
and in turn the U.S. taxpayer
in making ever increasing price
support payments for decreased
gram production from the most
productive and efficiency
agricultural plant in the world.”
"The potential for expanded U.S.
corn and agricultural exports is

tremendously bright; however,
this potential can only be realized
through an improvement in
governmental relations between
the Soviet Union and the United
States,” Mullins concluded. "The
effects of the January 4, 1960,
embargo are still with us inasmuch
as the subsequent decisions by the
U.S. Government about Soviet
trade cannot be clearly defined.
“Therefore, it is imperative that
Agricultural Secretary Block
initiate formal communication
with - his Soviet
counterparts to be the process of
either establishing or negotiating
another mutually acceptable
trading ' structure for U.S.
agricultural exports. Only this
development will begin to
demonstrate that the United States
will become a dependable supplier
of cord and commodities to the
Soviet Union in exchange for
Soviet commitment to become a
reliable market for these
products.”
