Over Half Million Acres In Reserve In Montana
Montana will keep 629,634 acres out of production under Conservation Reserve contracts in 1961. Contracts entered earlier prevent cropping or grazing for the life of the agreement with annual fall payments. About 285 Montana acres end contracts in 1960. Emerging land may be idle double the years under contract under a new law to protect future allotments. Nationally, contracts expire on about 90,000 acres in 1960, leaving 28.6 million acres in reserve in 1961.
