New Features in
1942 AAA Program
Receive Approval
Streamlined to meet the demands
of national defense and simplified
for easy administration, the 1942
AAA program for Oregon is rapidly
taking shape and will be available
at county AAA offices in handbook
form before October 1, the state
AAA office has announced.
Most important change in the pro
gram is the abandonment of soil
depleting commercial vegetable and
total allotments and the substitution
of a minimum soil conserving acre
age requirement, thus lending great
er flexibility to meet defense pro
duction requirements and still em
phasizing soil conservaton.
Under this provision, payments on

wheat and potato crop allotments
will be conditioned on 20 per cent
of the farm's crop land being devot
ed to soil conserving uses. These in
clude perennial grasses and peren
nial legumes, biennial legumes, Su
dan or annual ryegrass for pasture,
seeded cover crops, Austrian win
ter peas and vetch for seed, and
certain weed control practices on
irrigated land.
In the summer fallow counties of
eastern Oregon, the state commit
tee has recommended that protected
summer fallow qualify as a soil con
serving use, providing 10 per cent
of the crop land on the farm is de
voted to permanent grasses or le
gumes. The possibility of marketing quo
tas for potatoes has made it neces
sary to set potato allotments for all
farms in the state growing three
acres or more. In the past potato
allotments were established only in
certain counties designated as com
mercial potato areas. Procedure for
setting allotments has been chang
ed somewhat.
The wheat program remains much
the same as last year, except that it
will not be necessary to grow up
to 80 per cent of a farm's allot
ment to qualify for special crop
payments. A new practice provides
for application of oron or borax in
connection with the seeding of le.
guminous cover crops and perennial
legumes.
Changes in the range program,
combined this year with the farm
conservation program, provides for
the practices of rotational and lim
ited grazing under approved plans,
to encourage conservation on small
er ranches and on western Oregon
livestock farms.
