Acres llexl Year Under Benson Plan
Agricultural administrators and "croas compliance" and ' Total al-
department heads at State College
learned last week thai' North Car
olina farmers stand to lose 712,000
acres of land from cash crop pro
duction under a new. acreage -allot
ment program announced last month
by Secretary of Agriculture Benson,
according' to Horace D. Godfrey,
state daministrative officer for ag
ricultural conservation and stabil
ization.
At a meeting called by Dean of
Agriculture D. W. Colvard to con-
sider ways that the college could
help farmers meet the loss of those
acres and maintain their net in
come, Godfrey explained the new

lotment" provisions.
Godfrey pointed out that his of
fice had not yet received Instruc
tions for carrying out the derictive,
but essentially it calls tor two
things:
1. Farmers, in order to receive
price supports for any crop, must
comply with acreage allotments for
all crops. '
2. Farmers who have more than
10 "diverted acres" will be restrict,
ed to "total allotment" which they
cannot exceed and still receive
price supports.
North Carolina crops for which
allotments have been anuounced
are cotton, tobacco, wheat, peanuts
and corn. A farmer who, for in
stance, would receive price sup.
ports on his tobacco must plan with
in his allotment for cotton, wheat,
peanuts and corn, as well as tobac
co. If farmers plant within these al-
ktmenta. they will remove appreoa
imateiy 712,000 acres from the pro
auction of cash crops in JS5S.
In 1959, the - farmers win itm
262,000 acres of cotton, 13,000 as? ,
peanuts, 300,000 of corn, and CD
000 of wheat . : r . . .
Godfrey pointed out that divert
ed acres will be figured on tnebaat
ia of 1963 planting; year' warn
there were- nov acreage restrictiaos
on corn, cottom and! wheat, and
hence, ' year that will give thai
State the disadvantage of a large
pumber of diverted; acres.
