Bob Higgins of the USDA Soil Conservation Service in Salina urges caution before converting retired cropland back to crops. With high prices, land may be put into production hastily. He recommends selecting productive, nonerosive fields, preserving grass waterways and hedge-row strips for wildlife, and considering pasture or wildlife cover as alternatives.
