National Formula Proposed for Larger Beet Acreage
A national formula for beet acreage allotments seeks larger state shares. Colorado and California lead allocations with 191 591 and 850 000 acres respectively. Key supporters include Tom Heath, Frank A Kemp, and Reynoak Carey who highlight drought impacts in Colorado’s Arkansas Valley. Proposals set national limits, a 500 acre reserve, and recomputed 1957 base acreages, with state shares allocated proportionally and protected for new producers. A Tuesday hearing drew 100 growers and processors, with objections to the 2 percent new-producer share and a campaign for 815,000 acre allotments.
