The U.S. Commodity CreditCorporation (CCC) has accepted a bid for an export bonus to
cover a sale of 186 head of dairy cattle to Egypt, the U.S.
Agriculture Department said.
    The department said the cattle are for delivery May 7-June
7, 1987, and the bonus awarded was 1,888.06 dlrs per head.
    The bonus was made to First Interstate Trading Co and will
be paid to the exporter in the form of commodities from CCC
stocks, the department said.
    An additional 7,959 head of dairy cattle are still
available to Egypt under the Export Enhancement Program
initiative announced September 12, 1986, it said.
