Wheat acreage allotment offers farmers 22 to 25 cents per bushel payments
Nebraska agrarian policy outlines two payments totaling 22 to 25 cents per bushel for wheat grown within a 60 acre allotment. One payment stems from acreage adjustment and the other from a 212 million dollar parity and incentive program. Farmers may store wheat to secure loan protection or sell to gain profit if prices rise.

Slow Progress on Sioux County Test Drillers
Drillers at the Agate test oil well of Union Oil in Sioux county pulled a 10 foot section of drill stem yesterday. About 3,500 feet of pipe remains in the hole near 7,000 feet. At the Felmont Kimion test well depth reached 2,600 feet on the Sandford structure. Water shortage slows operations. Felmont uses two wells and trucked water from the Niobrara river, hoping deeper drilling requires less water.
