Wheat Acreage Cut Announced in 1936 Plan
The AAA announced a fifteen percent reduction in wheat acreage for 1936 with farmers signing contracts to adjust production.

The four year contracts run 1938 and 1939, with termination options after two years. Davis urged widespread signing as amendments seek constitutional clarity.
