comments on what method the
US Department of Agriculture
should use to determine crop
acreage bases, not only for
wheat but also for feed grains,
cotton and rice.
"Whatever methodology we
settle on for the wheat pro
gram likely will be used for
other program crops," Block
said. For this reason, it is
' important that we hear from
all segments of US agriculture
on this subject." he added.
The deadline for comment is

stated
A crop acreage base is the
numtMT of acres of a crop
from which a farmer must
reduce plantings if an acreage
reduction program is in effect.
For example, a farmer with a
KKi acre wheat base could
plant no more than KS acres of
wheat if a 15 percent acreage
reduction were in effect, ac
cording to the news release
Farmers who grow several
program crops such as corn,
wheal and barley ..would have
an acreage base established
for each crop, the news re
lease continued.
Block said he plans to an
nounce the 1981 program well
in advance of the August 15
statutory deadline Be said he
will study the public's recom
mendations and the most cur
rent data on I'S and world
crop conditions, productions
and consumption before he
makes final decisions, accord

Specifically, comments

land diversion, offsetting com
pliance requirements for an
acreage reduction program:
