The average market I'S price has been calculated on a quarterly basis, and payments will be made on that basis. The payment for cattle (A, B and C grade steers and heifers) sold for slaughter in January to March will be $1.84 per hundred weight; April to June, no payment as the weighted average price exceeded the support level; July to September $3.00 per hundred- re weight; October to December $2.98 per hundred- weight. The program supports 1976 slaughter cattle at 95 per cent of the national average market price for the past five years, indexed for changes in farmers' cash costs of production, Cattle are a named commodity under the Agricul- tural Stabilization Act. The minimum support level, * under the Act, is 90 per cent of the average market price. However, in 1976, circumstances were such that the support price has been set at the 95 per cent level. Individual producers will be able to apply for the deficiency payment on up to 2,500 head of cattle sold during the three quarters for which a payment is a being made.
