Feed grain and wheat
producers who are interested
in enrolling fat this years' Set
Aside programs must do so
not later than April 9, ac
cording to Ralph W. Ramsey,
County ASCS Executive
Director.
Ramsey explained that
operators of farms for which a
feed grain base or wheat
allotment were established for
1971 are eligible to take part in
the setaside programs.
Through these programs
farmers agree to set-aside to
conserving uses an acreage
equivalent to 20 per cent of the
farms feed grain base and 90
per cent of the wheat allot
ment. By meeting these set
aside requirements and
maintaining the farm's
conserving base, the farmer
who enrolls can plant the
remainder of his farms'
cropland acreage to crops that
best fit into his farm
operations or enterprises in
addition to earning a program
payment.
Ramsey further explained
that the new set-aside
programs for 1971, as
provided by the Agricultural
Act of 1970, are entirely dif
ferent from the feed grain and
wheat diversion programs of
the 1960's and that farmers
who want to take measure! to
protect their com bases or
wheat allotments for future
years, regardless of whether
they enroll In the 1971
programs, should contact the
ASCS office for the details on
these programs.
