Program Users Have

Advantage in ASC

Growers who participate in the 1963 feed grain program will have four definite advantages over growers who elect not to participate, according to Chairman of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee.

These advantages he described as: 1. Price support will be available for the participating grower’s 1963 production of corn, grain sorghum, and barley. 2. A substantial income from the acres diverted is assured regardless of drought.flood, insects,hail, or crop disease.

3. The priqe-support payment on the established yield of the planted acreage is also assured. 4. An advance payment of part of the diversion payment, at the participant’s request, will be made at the time of signing up or as soon as possible after that time. A grower participating in the feed grain grogram, the Chairman explained, reduced his acreage of corn, grain sorghum, and barley by at least 20 percent of his farm’s feed grain base acreage, and devotes this diverted acreage to a conserving use. The first step necessary to take part in the program, however, is signing an intention-to-participate form at the ASCS County Office. The signup period extends through March 22.
