Change Made In
Planting Tobacco
Tobacco intertilled with any
other crop will be considered as
being all tobacco for ASC meas
uring purposes, unless the dis
tance between the rows or strips
■of tobacco is at least four nor
mal tobacco rows. This, accord
ing to A. C. Griffin, Agriultural
Stabilization and Conservation
County Chairman, is a very sig
nificant change and one which
•11 tobacco farmers should re
member when they set tobacco.
The same thing applies if tobac
co is planted in alternate rows
or strips with idle ’and —except
for eligible sled rows.
Griffin further explained that
eligible sled rows rnaf be de
ducted from the acreage of flue
cured tobacco provided no crop
is planted in the sled row. If
a rop is planted in the sled row
it will be counted as all to
bacco.
If because tobacco is planted
with other crops or idle land
the entire areage must be con
sidered as tobacco, no credit for
disposition of excess acreage may
be given for any area not plant
ed to tobaco unless the area de
stroyed is as wide as four nor
mal rows. By the same token
according to Griffin, if a crop
planted in a sled row is destroy
ed the area still would not be
eligible for deduction and no dis
position credit could be given
