Soil Bank Plan Is In Effect For Corn Crop
Clinton county farmers may obtain maximum price supports for corn this year in two ways. Howard S. Hackney of the ASC announced that compliance with corn acreage allotments or Soil Bank reserve requirements can net a $1.50 per bushel price support. Farmers who do not comply will receive $1.25 per bushel. To qualify for the maximum under the acreage reserve plan, a farmer must reserve 15 percent of his base corn acreage, avoid harvesting any crop, and not use the land for grazing. Hackney said allotments will be refigured to increase 17.8 percent to align 1956 with 1955. Telegrams were sent to state ASC committees with details of eligibility and two paths to the $1.50 support.
