Acreage Reserve Rules Set by Benson for 1958 Program
Secretary Benson outlines 1958 Acreage Reserve limits including a $3,000 payment cap per producer and a $500 million total funds ceiling. Existing base acreage from Conservation Reserve and 1958 Winter Wheat Reserve applies to spring planted crops. The program aims to curb surpluses and relies on broad participation across farms to prevent new excess supplies.
