Farmers may bid to enter their highly erodible cropland into a 10year CRP contract beginning with ^either the 1987 or-1088 crop year, according to IAidd<('P. Henry, County Executive Director of Rappahannock County ASCS Office. r
To restrain further buildup of corn stockpOes and encourage excess corn acres into the long-term program, the sign-p contains a bonus annual rental payment for highly erodible com acreage. This offer is limited to new Conservation Reserve Program contracts effective with the 1987 crop year and is not retroactive for corn base acreage under CRP contracts already signed. The additional rental payment will be made in generic commodity certificates when the new 1987 CRP contract is accepted.
Farmers who have already signed up in other 1987 acreage reduction programs and received advance payments in cash or certificates may cancel or revise their contracts and enter into the CRP. No penalty will be charged, but payments already received must be refiinded in cash.
The bonus payment will be equal to $2 times the farm program yield for com, times the number of com base acres designated for the CRP.
