Soil program expands range and payments to growers
The plan broadens range and grass lands and increases payments for growers of vegetables and fruits while boosting soil building funds. Congress has yet to appropriate the stated 509 million annual benefits under the soil conservation act, Tolley notes. The 1937 plan removes diversion payments for New England small farms but raises soil building allowances. Corn planting limits aim to curb surpluses and price drops, with deductions for excess acreage beyond county quota.
