County soils committee prepares final notification forms on bases and corn limits to be mailed to producers within days. Split tract operators will not receive base or corn limit notices yet as changes depend on compliance checks. A corn loan this year is unlikely and if it materializes it will require cooperation in agricultural conservation programs. A humorous aside notes Tom Queen of New Virginia found a long-lost debt repaid after 35 years.
