PAGE TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON 1 SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 1956' t Count Extension Agent Explains Soil Bank Plan By C. A. HENDERSON County Intension Agent. Secretary of Agriculture Benson states that the administration's soil bank program will reduce surplus es, and along with other economic chance? will gradually bring pro duction and markets into balance at fair prices. The secretary stated it win insure more economic se curity and (air prices to farm people. The soil bank is in two parts, the secretary stated: One called an Acreage Reserve and Uie other a conservation reserve. Under the acreage reserve, farm ers would voluntarily reduce plant ing? oeiow tneir acreage allot ments, and in return would re ceive certificates equal to a speci fied percentage of their, normal yield on the acres they withheld. The certificates would be negoti able so farmers could convert them into cash, or they would be re deemable by the Commodity Cred it Corporation either in cash or In aotual commodity at a specified rate. The farmer would contract neither to graze nor to harvest any other crop from acres put into the reserve. With production reduced, CCC could use part of its accumu lated stocks to supply market needs without depressing farm prices. Under the conservation reserve, farmers would contract with the government to shift land out of cultivated crops and Into forage or trees and. where feasible, to ponds and reservoirs. Any farmer would be eligible to participate. He would be paid a fair share of the cost of establishing the forage or tree cover, up to a specified max imum amount per acre that would vary for different regions. The gov ernment would provide certain an nual payments for a period of years related to the length of time needed to establish the new use of the land. Land put Into this conservation reserve would repre sent a net reduction in the farm"a cultivated acres and would be in addition to any land put In Hie acreage reserve. The farmer would agree to refrain lrom reverting these acres to cultivated crop pro duction and not to graze them for a specified period of years.
