Payments Set for 1941 Agricultural Conservation Program
The AAA has announced 1941 payment rates and national acreage goals, with emphasis on soil conservation. Rates largely mirror 1940 for most crops, but some allotment crops are slightly lower due to increased conservation funds, higher participation, and larger yields such as cotton 238 pounds per acre in 1941 versus 230 in 1940. The soil-depleting crop goal remains 270 to 285 million acres, and farmers can earn payments for seeding within soil depleting allotments and for soil-building practices.
