New Wheat Allotment Law Allows 1958 Overproduction
County official Myron Isle says a new 1958 law lets farmers overproduce wheat and still credit history up to base acreage for 1958. The law delays earlier 1957 changes by one year and applies only to wheat acreage history, not marketing quotas. Farmers over 15 acres who exceed 1958 allotments face marketing quota settlements.
