ASCS Sets Final Cotton Planting Date and Diverted Acreage Rules
W A Fulford chair of the Terry Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee announces June 10 as the final date to plant or replant cotton for quality yields. Displaced producers may apply for credit as planted after this date and may switch to other crops except feed grains and peanuts. Replanting to grain sorghum remains subject to feed grain rules. Diverted acreage rules allow classification adjustments if planted workmanlike, weed residue justifies reuse, producer requests diverted payments, and the land is treated as diverted for the year. Applications are open for vegetative cover under practice D2 with eligible seed including Guar Sesbania Millet Forage Sorghums Sudan and Sorghum Sudans.
