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.” WORK IN WARMTH!
