Farmers To Receive $102 Million From Wheat Reduction Plan
Secretary Wallace announced signups cover about 80 percent of national seeded acreage under the farm adjustment plan. Cash benefits are projected at over $102 million, with roughly two thirds paid this fall and the first checks going to Virginia counties next week. Peak disbursement to Great Plains wheat regions will occur in November as applications cover 570,263 farms and 51,995,612 acres. A 15 percent reduction aims to cut 7,781,000 acres from next year’s harvest.
