CHICAGO -
Secretary of
Agriculture John R.
Block recently an
nounced $386 million in
blended credit
programs for Morocco
and Egypt to purchase
nearly 2.5 million
metric tons of U.S.
wheat in fiscal 1985.
About 1.6 million
metric tons of wheat
will be purchased under
the $250 million blended
credit package for
Morocco. The package
consists of $2OO million
under the Export
Guarantee Program
(GSM-102) combined
with $5O million in in
terest-free government
credits under the Ex
port Credit Sales
Program (GSM-5).
The $136 million
package for Egypt will
be used to purchase
about 850,000 metric
tons of wheat. The
package consists of
$lOB.B million under the
Export Guarantee
Program combined with
$27.2 million in interest
free government credits
under the Export Credit
Sales Program.
“During the past
three years, we have
effectively focused the
blended credit
programs on areas
where the European
Community subsidies
have hampered our
ability to sell com
petitively,” Block said.
“Both Morocco and
Egypt are important
markets for U.S. wheat.
These new allocations
are good examples of
how the effective use of
credit can make a big
difference in exports of
U.S. agricultural
products.”
