Commodity Credit Corporation: What It Is and How It Works

Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service

No 350162, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: For half a century, the Commodity Credit Corporation has been agriculture's "bank" -- the Federal government's financing arm for an array of domestic and international farm programs. It has had an impact on every producer who has received a price support payment or loan, on every organization that has received a commodity donation, and on every banker or foreign government that has received a loan guarantee or line of credit for export sales. Here's a closer look at the CCC and how it operates.
