984 County Farmers Sign Feed Program
As of May 12, corn and grain sorghum producers on 984 farms in Marion County filed forms indicating intent to participate in the 1961 feed grain program. Harold D. Crippen, chairman of the County ASC Committee, announced. The program offers special payments to divert part of acreage to approved conservation uses, aiming to boost farm income and curb feed grain supplies. Participation is voluntary, but those not joining lose eligibility for 1961 grain price support.
