The plan centers on a soil bank paying up to 400 million dollars next year to take land out of surplus crops, while allowing continued production of wheat, cotton, tobacco, peanuts and possibly rice. The administration aims for farmer freedom and asks Congress next month to consider new farm program proposals.
