1980 Farm Program Supports Crop Disaster Aid
Farmers reporting crops within their normal acreage by July 1 to the ASCS office will qualify for disaster payments plus price supports and deficiency payments. The program also offers higher disaster payments for farmers reporting accurate spring plantings, and requires inspection of non grain uses. Consumers are urged to stock up pork and poultry with June July freezer space advised, as prices stay low and storage issues loom while Maryland producers maintain strong dairy and poultry output.
