Cost Sharing Not Linked With Soil Bank Intentions
Jones County farmers may apply for government cost sharing under ACP for conservation work this year regardless of soil bank participation. The program covers acreage reserve land with grazing and harvest restrictions, while soil bank reserve land may use higher rate practices. Early requests get prompt consideration. 1956 ACP funded $120,487.12 across 968 farms. The 1957 allocation is $74,300 with potential for more if state reserves allow.
