Title: ●Elimination of Regulation: Supplier Credit Guarantee Program (SCGP) 
Abstract: The SCGP guarantees a portion of payments from importers under short-term financing that exporters have extended directly to the importers for the purchase of U.S. agricultural commodities and products. These direct credits must be secured by promissory notes signed by the importers. This program has not been in operation since July 2005. Under the provisions of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, the SCGP has been repealed; therefore, the regulations will be deleted.
