Farmers to visit AAA offices starting next month
Farmers seeking crop advice from the Agriculture Adjustment Agency will visit county offices rather than farms, beginning next month. Joseph H. Blandford, state AAA chairman, says the shift will cut county AAA personnel by about 92A percent due to the elimination of crop insurance, allotments, and quotas. He expects minimal office cuts in most counties and notes remaining staff will handle War Board duties and machinery and feed distribution. Emphasis will shift to conservation measures and soil fertility practices.
