Land Contracts Allow Summer Fallow Use For Crop Types
States will specify crops planted on contracted acreage under the 1934 and 1935 wheat adjustment plan. Uses allowed include soil-building and erosion prevention, home food crops, and feed crops for on farm livestock, but not for sale of nationally produced agricultural products. Kansas Extension Director H Umberger notes state services will determine specific crops per region as directed by Washington. In 1933, full adjustment payments hinge on seeding sufficient wheat on contracted land unless rotation proves otherwise, with county allotment committees setting final payment amounts. Educational meetings are advancing in Kansas as part of the allotment program rollout.
