The acreage intended for barley and oats on participating farms is limited to the permitted acreage for barley and oats on the farm. Producers who are not participating in the barley and oats program, but are participating in the program for another crop on the farm, may have an acreage planted to oats in excess of the oat acreage base. However, because of the provision for substituting crop acreage base to oats, nonparticipating producers intending to plant barley should contact their ASCS office for the permitted barley acreage, Ms. Henry emphasized.
The 1988 oats crop is forecast at a record-low 211 million bushels. Lifting the cross-compliance requirement is expected to increase oats acreage for the future, she said.
