Soil Bank May Be Insufficient to Reduce Surpluses
A Department survey finds the 1.2 billion soil bank program may be only about 50 percent efficient in trimming crop acreages amid surpluses. Farmers’ 1957 plans show 348 million acres planned to plant, about 12 million fewer than last year, while earlier reports indicated nearly 24 million acres are retired through soil bank subsidies. The gap suggests some farmers are expanding operations, offsetting gains from soil bank participation, though progress in reducing surpluses for wheat, corn, cotton, rice, and tobacco is possible.
