DISTRIBUTION OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES For an additional amount to be added to and merged with the funds currently available to the Department of Agriculture for surplus removal operations in connection with perishable agricul- tural commodities (7 U.S.C. 612c), $75,000,000. Such funds shall be used to acquire and distribute surplus agricultural commodities in areas of high unemployment for use in cooperative emergency feeding facilities for indigent persons and shall be accounted for separately and in addition to existing funds held in reserve to support the price of perishable commodities as the need may arise. The Secretary's ability to support prices is contingent upon main- taining reserves adequate to announce large scale purchase. Prices tend to stabilize based on the announcement of intent to purchase, thereby reducing the need for actual purchase. Notwithstanding 15 U.S.C. 713c-2, the Secretary of Agriculture shall purchase domestically produced fresh and processed fishery products from funds appropriated under 7 U.S.C. 612c, and distrib- ute to eligible recipient agencies.
