On Conservat. Work

Farmers who plan to install a conservation practice under the Agricultural Conservation Program are reminded by H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, that application should be made before the conservation work is begun if Federal cost-shares are to be paid. •

This is very important, according to Chairman Barksdale. He said that application for approval of an ACP practice must be made beforehand so that the county committee can budget the limited funds available and set aside funds for practices approved for farmers.

Under the ACP, the Federal government shares the cost of farm conservation practices needed in the public interest. The program is administered by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, and each local application comes before the farmer-elected County ASC Committee for approval or disapproval.

Farmers interested in doing conservation work under the ACP may obtain more information from the County ASCS Office or any county or community ASC committeeman.
