During the four month period
through Oct. 31, Texas farmers
and ranchers eligible under the
emergency feed grain and rough
age programs, received assist-
ance in the purchase of 1,44: ,
pounds of grain and
1,374,170 tons of roughage, it is
reported by Walter T. McKay,
state director for the Farmers
Home Administration.
Processed during this period
were 91,787 applications for
$7.50 per ton <>f roughage actu-
ally bought.
Regulations which guide FH...
county committees in the re-
view of applications provide
that applicants will not be cer-
tified if they are financially able
to obtain the necessary feed
for their basic herds without
difficulty and can continue their
normal farming and livestock
operations. It is not expected
that applicants should exhaust

grain assistance and 37.405 ap- their total resources, including
plications, under the roughage t credit, before they can be certi-
fied for assistance, Mr. McKay
program.
The emergency feed grain
and roughage programs are in-
tended to help established farm-
ers and ranchers, who are pri-
marily engaged in farming and
ranching, to maintain their bas-
ic herds of cattle, sheep, and
goats, if their circumstances are
such that assistance is needed,
Mr. McKay advised.
The local FHA committee has
the responsibility to determine
the eligibility of indivdual ap-
plicants and to approve the
amount of feed each applicant
may purchase under the pro-
gram.
A total of 233 counties in
Texas are designated under the
emergency feed grain arid rough-
age programs. In these coun-
ties, eligible applicants are help
ed in buying corn, oats, barley,
Krain, sorghums, or approved
feed mixtures containing either
(iO or 75 per cent of these grains
through Government subsidy of
$1.50 per hundredweight.
The Federal government pays
the full amount of this subsidy.
In addition to the emergency
feed grain assistance, eligible
applicants are helped to buy
hay or other approved roughage
to maintain their basic herds.
Under this program, applicants
received a Federal subsidy
assistance,
said.
He added, however, that "the
fact that the purchase of feed
at regular prices may not be
profitable to the applicant is
not sufficient to qualify him for
assistance. It must be determin-
ed in every instance that an
applicant is primarily engag-
ed in farming or ranching and
that this is his main source of
income. A nominal portion of
his income from other sources
would not necessarily disqualify
the applicant.
"The over riding factor in de-
termining the eligibility of any
applicant is his financial ability
to obtain the feed necessary to
maintain his basic herds and
continue his normal operations.
"An applicant whose financial
circumstances are such that he
can provide necessary feed for
his basic herds and carry on his
operations without serious diffi-
culty is not eligible for this as-
sistance."
