in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary may adjust peanut loan rates for differences like grade, type, quality, and location. Adjustments should keep the overall average loan level equal to the level this law otherwise sets. County-level loan rates cannot go below 95% of the national average, and cannot raise the national average.

(a) Adjustment authority. The Secretary may adjust peanut loan rates to reflect differences in grade, type, quality, location, and other factors. (b) Manner of adjustment. These adjustments should, as much as practical, keep the average loan level equal to the support level otherwise set by this subchapter. (c) Adjustment on county basis. (1) The Secretary may set different county loan rates for a peanut crop, as long as the lowest one stays at least 95 percent of the national average, and the county rates do not raise total government spending. (2) These county adjustments can never raise the national average loan rate.

The Secretary may make appropriate adjustments in the loan rates for peanuts for differences in grade, type, quality, location, and other factors.

(b) Manner of adjustment

The adjustments under subsection (a) shall, to the maximum extent practicable, be made in such a manner that the average loan level for peanuts will, on the basis of the anticipated incidence of the factors, be equal to the level of support determined in accordance with this subchapter and subtitles B, D, and E.

(c) Adjustment on county basis
(1) In general

Subject to paragraph (2), the Secretary may establish loan rates for a crop of peanuts for producers in individual counties in a manner that results in the lowest loan rate being 95 percent of the national average loan rate, if those loan rates do not result in an increase in outlays.
