ACP Practices Carried out on More Farms
ACP practices expanded nationwide in 1962 with about 1.27 million farms involved, a 5 percent rise from 1961. In Teton County 304 farms benefited, investing roughly $225,536 with cost sharing about half. Projects included grass and hay lands, deferred grazing, tree planting, reservoirs and wells, fencing, tile drains, land leveling, irrigation system updates, cover crops, weed control, and irrigation improvements. By 1963 the program continued with 337 local farmers seeking cost sharing to expand soil and water conservation efforts.
