JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - The state Senate has passed a bill to
establish a fund to provide loans to sweet potato farmers, many of
whom lost much of their crop last year because of the unusually
heavy rains during harvest time.
&nbsp;  &nbsp;  Under the bill, passed Thursday, a sweet potato farmer could
apply for a 2.5 percent interest rate loan. They would have five to
seven years to repay the loan. The state would issue bonds to pay
the bank in case of defaults.           ]]></description>
