Advance Payments Announced For 1969 Commodity Programs Producers signifig up February 3 through March 21 to participate in the 1969 feed grain and wheat programs can request advance payments of up to 50 per cent for voluntary extra acreage diversion, it was announced today by secretary of agriculture Clifford M. Hardin. This is the maximum advance that can be made on the diversion payments. Earlier today, in a statement issued by the President at the White House, the secretary was instructed to make available a 50 per cent advance payment to participants in the 1969 feed grain program. The Presidential statement pointed out that a budget request to the Congress on January 15 had this advance reduced to 25 per cent. Because of the short time between the January 15 budget presentation and the signup starting February 3, the President indicated the government has a moral obligation to continue the rate without abrupt change. Projected on previous years’ signups and current payment rates, disbursement of partial advance payments to feed gain, wheat and cotton program participants are expected to reach $386 million by the close of the signup period oni March 21. Feed grain producers may receive this spring up to 50 per cent of the estimated diversion payment for their farm. This is for acreage which producers voluntarily retire from production beyond that required to qualify as a participant. Asia is composed of 17,000,000 square miles.
