Soil conservation base and corn limits set for farms
The 1937 agricultural conservation program outlines soil-depleting and soil-conserving bases and corn acre-age limits for each farm. Base figures are set by township and county committees with adjustments possible, and total soil-depleting acres cannot exceed the county cap. Payments include a $6 diversion and a 3 conversion payment, averaging $9 nationally and over $13 in Iowa, plus practice payments for conservation steps.
