The U.S. Commodity Credit
Corporation (CCC) has authorized an additional 10.0 mln dlrs in
credit guarantees to cover sales of U.S. vegetable oils to
North Yemen, the U.S. Agriculture Department said.
The department also said at the request of the North Yemen
Government five mln dlrs in credit guarantees previously
earmarked for sales of wheat have been switched to cover sales
of mixed poultry feed.
The actions increase the value of credit guarantees for
vegetable oil for the current fiscal year to 38 mln dlrs,
reduce the guarantee coverage for sales of wheat to eight mln
dlrs and increase the coverage for sales of mixed poultry feed
to 10 mln dlrs.
