Farmers Must Cut Crops To Get Soil Bank Money
Washington reports government soil bank payments for 1956 depend on farmers actually reducing production. Participants receive subsidies only for reductions farmers themselves make, not for damage caused by drought floods or pests. Payments hinge on reduced yields per acre and vary by crop, with corn at 90 cents per bushel and wheat at 1.20 per bushel, while peanuts and tobacco rates are unsettled.
