Farm Adjustment News Digest reports Iowa counties are ready to start the corn hog program once instructions and application blanks arrive.

The plan combines a $200 million payment for reducing 1934 pig production by 25 percent, a $150 million payment for cutting 1934 corn acreage by at least 20 percent, and removal of hogs from normal trade channels for relief administration use. Hogs processed for home consumption stay exempt from taxes. Tenants facing absentee landlord issues can seek help from county agents.
