County Committee Sets 1987 Program Recommendations
Kossuth County farmers sent recommendations for the 1937 agricultural conservation program to the State Conservation office in Des Moines. The summary preserves soil-building practices from 1936, adds timothy use, oats cut for hay with legumes, sudan pasture with legumes, and allows flax on virgin land. Township bodies may adjust 1936 bases for 1938, with farmers kept informed as the new program is finalized.
