1CRC base price is the December
15-January 14 average closing price of the appropriate futures contract
for sales closing before March 15. RA has no contracts for a 1/31 sales
closing date. For February 28 sales closing RA uses the first 10
trading days in February to set the base price and uses the same harvest
price as the March 15 sales closing RA contract. |

2The grain sorghum price election is set
