Deadline Near For Signing Corn Hog Contracts In County
With the April 1 deadline approaching for corn hog contract signups farmers should contact their local committeeman to speed the process. Township committees are still reaching out to non signers as appraisal work on contracted farms progresses, hampered by bad roads. Over 1200 contracts have already been signed in Jones county, with 1659 last year. this year’s total may be lower due to combined contracts on some farms. The program aims to raise production while avoiding the surpluses and low prices seen in 1932 and 1933, and benefits corn producers by maintaining profitable hog and corn output through cooperative action.
