Platte County Farmers Receive Four Million Set Aside Payments
Platte County executives report 1925 farms earned 4.201 million dollars in set aside payments under the Agriculture Stabilization and Conservation Service since July 1. Farmers agreed to idle cropland in 1972 in exchange for a fair land price while maintaining tax obligations and conservation practices. Congress caps payments at 55 dollars per person per crop. National totals approach 3.7 billion with most going to feed grain producers.
