These four schemes vary from an inclusive scheme to fix minimum prices on all kinds of wheat and wheat flour in all countries, to a scheme to fix minimum prices only on a few important grades, coupling this with constant quantitative con- trol of exports to keep free grades in line and prevent them from destroy- ing the market for minimum-priced grades.
