Gor don is directress. Eureka High School Growers who are still "thinking it over’ about participating in the 1962 feed grain program were urged today not to delay any longer. The signup period extends only thru March 30. W. L. Lanier, State Executive Di rector of the Ga. Agricultural Sta bilization and Conservation Service reports that farmer interest is high in Georgia as well as through out the country generally. Indica tions are that 1962 participation will run well ahead of that under last year’s feed grain program. Farmers who take part in the feed grain program first file an inten tion to participate form in the j ASCS County Office, indicating the number of corn or grain sorghum acres they intend to divert from production into a soil-conserrving use. The minmum diversion is 20 per cent of the farm’s base acreage but many farmers are indicating their intention to divert more than the minimum. For participating in the feed grain program, farmers earn di version payments, and they also qualify for price support on the normal production of their 1962 acreage of these crops. If the farmer wishes, up to about half the expected payment to be earned may be made at the time the applica tion to take part in the program is filed. Lanier points out that a wide participation in the feed grain pro gram this year will not only save the farmer the costs of planting and harvesting acreages of un needed feed grains, but it will al so continue to reduce the costly pileup of feed grains in government ownership, increase conservation of our farm land, and save dollars for every taxpayer thru further reduc tion in government costs of stor ing, shipping, and handling gov ernment owned grains.
