Statement Issued
By Cong. Pace
The peanut program for this year
will be about the same as we had
.n 1946. It is not possible to state at
this time exactly what the support
price will be, as it will be governed
by the parity price on July 15th,
but it should be as high, and pos
;ibly higher, than last year. The
support price will be ninety per
cent of the July 15th, 1947 parity
price. Parity prices have gone up
since last July and on February 15th
I the parity price for peanuts was
$212 per ton.
The parity price of peanuts on
luly 15, 1946, was $l9l per ton, and
support prices on the crop last
year were worked out at ninety
oercent o'f that figure, and gave us
support prices on the 1946 crop as
follows:
Spanish, basic 70 percent sound
meats, $174 per ton, with $2.50
added or subtracted for each per
cent difference in sound meat con
tent.
Runners, basis 65 percent sound
meats, $157 per ton, with $2.40
added or subtracted for each dif
ference in sound meat content.
Possible Higher Support
If the parity price next July 15
should be as high as it was Febru
ary 15 then the support or bottom
prices this fall should be about ten
percent higher than last year. But,
just as parity has gone up since
last July, on account of increases in
the price of things farmers need for
production and living, it may go
down some between now and next
July if the prices of things farmers
buy go down. But officials in the
Department of Agriculture do not
think parity will go down between
now and next July any more, and
piobably not as much, as it has gone
up since last July. In fact, it may
not go down at all. Therefore, it
now appears that the support price
for peanuts this fall should be as
as high, and possibly higher, than
last year.
Of course the size of the crop and
the situation with regard to sup
plies of fats and oils will determine
whether or not the market price of

peanuts will be above the supp ort
price. There is at present a World
shortage of fats and oils and there
is now a heavy demand for peanuts
for crushing into oil. This demand
is so great that it now appears the
entire 1946 crop of over one million
tons will be consumed before this
year’s crop is ready for harvest. TlTb
price situation is always better
when there is no carry over.
There will Toe no acreage control
of peanuts this year; that is, the
farmers can plant as many peanuts
as they wish. However, Ido not
recommend planting any more than
was planted last year. If we should
produce too many peanuts and the
demand for oil should let up, then
two things could happen: First, the
Government could lose a great deal
of money on the support price pro
gram and this could endanger that
program for future years. Secondly,
the Government would probably in
sist on the peanut producers adopt
ing acreage controls. Certainly we
want to keep the support price and
we want to be free of acreage con
trols as long as possible.
