Sign-Up Period Begins Farmers who want to bid to enter their highly erodible crop land into USDA's conservation reserve program may do so during the program's second signup period, May 5-16. According to Secretary of Agriculture Richard E. Lying, producers will be offered the op tion to bid for conservation re serve program contract begin ning with either the 1986 or 1987 crop year. For contracts which are ef fective immediately, annual payments will be made begin ning October 1, 1986. Producers cannot harvest any 1986 crop planted on land to be placed in the program. Any producer who has had or will have a crop mechanically removed from the designated area is ineligible for a 1986 contract. For contracts which become effective on October 1, 1986 or later, producers will be allowed to harvest their 1986 crop, and no annual payments will be made l>efore October 1,1987. USDA will establish maximum acceptable rental rates after the end of the signup and bid data have been evalu ated. Additional signup dates for the 1987 crop year will be announced later. For the 1986 signup, desig nated cropland may be grazed until the Commodity Credit Cor poration enters into a conserva tion reserve program contract with the producer and notifies him that livestock must be re moved to comply with contract provisions. Land that is designated for 1987 contracts may not be grazed after October 1,1986. Agricultural stabilization and conservation state committees may re-establish pool bounda ries for the second signup period. The only acreage limitation that applies for the second sign up is that a maximum of 25 per cent of the cropland in a county may be entered into the program. During the first signup period, which ran March 3-15, 838,356 acres of highly erodible acres of highly erodible crop land were entered into the con servation reserve program. Ac cepted bids ranged from $5 to $90 per acre, and the average bid was $41.82 per acre.
