Contracted Acres Need Not Be in Solid Block
Policy notes that contracted acres may be scattered in stripes within a field for terracing and strip farming. Farmers can space terraces across the land, lay out complete systems in their own time, and adjust acreage by strip width to meet contract terms. If strips reduce production, adjustments allow sowing small grains to protect fields.
