Cites Experiments In Contour Strip Farming
Maryland farmers are urged to study Ohio and Pennsylvania results on contour strip cropping says Charles P. Ellington of the University of Maryland. Ohio tests show contour strips reduced soil loss from 57.3 to 15.4 tons per acre and cut water loss to 4.1 percent of precipitation, versus 68 percent with rows up and down hills. Pennsylvania results indicate even greater soil and water savings from contour strip cropping.

Becomes Ineligible For Price Support
A farm that plants more than its grain acreage allotment loses price support on all production. George J. Martur outlines eligibility: comply with allotment, actually produce all grain offered, and have produced the year of application. Grain must be stored or warehoused under CCC rules, with proper protection and receipts from approved warehouses. If a loan is granted but the commodity is later found ineligible, the loan is called.
