Shelterbelt Crop Reduction Lands to Be Used for Tree Planting
A cooperative plan between AAA administrator Chester A. Davis and Forest Service Chief F. A. Silcox will allow use of lands in crop-reduction contracts for Shelterbelt strip-planting. Trees may be planted on contracted acreage or alternative sites with owner agreement and separate Forest Service leases to ensure future control. Rentals will be paid by the Forest Service during AAA contracts, aiding next year’s shelterbelt needs and likely donations to secure striped plantings.
