County Farmers
Have Until May 15
To Sign For Program
Com and grain sorghum grow
ers have until May 15 to sign up
under the 1961 feed grain pro
gram, Hugh B Workman, chair
man, Laurens ASC County Com
mittee, said today.
The program provides special
payments to growers of the two
crops who divert acreages this
year from the production of com
or grain sorghum to a soil con
serving use. Up to half the total
payment to be arned on a farm
may be made in advance is the
farmer requests it.
In Laurens County, the average
county rates are $14.80 per acre
for reducing com acreage a mini
mum of 20% below the farm base
acreage and $12.30 per acre for
reducing grain sorghum a like
amount. Higher rates will apply
for reducing corn and grain sorg
hum acreage from 20% to 40%
below the base. Rates on a farm
may be higher or lower than the
county rates, depending on the
productivity in relation to the
county average.
WTiile the program is volun
tary, corn and grain sorghum
producers will not be eligible for
price support on any of their 1961
feed grain crops unless they coop
erate in the feed grain program.
The chairman reported that
many farmers have visited the
county office since the program
was announced to obtain further
information. Interest has been
general throughout the area, and
farmers often have filed an appli
cation at that time to take part
in the program.
Some farmers have indicated
an interest in the program, but
they have not followed through.
Such producers are urged to get
in touch with the county ASC of
fice as soon as possible, but not
later than the May 15th deadline.
