Insurance Features
Of AAA Program
Discussed
Clemson, April 10. — Under the
1937 Agricultural Conservation
Program, every farmer who parti
cipates in the program is protected
to the full extent of his participa
tion, savs R. W. Hamilton, assistant
to the Extension Service director,
urging producers to a careful con
sideration of the insurance feature
of the program. The farmer’s pay
ments are not affected by weather,
boll weevils, or fluctuations in
prices. The larger the number of
acres devoted to scil-building crops
and practices, the greater the pro
tection against flood, drought, and
low prices.
As explained further by Mr.
HamiJton, the Agricultural Conser
vation Program provides protection
to farmers in the following ways:
1. All producers who participate
will receive some cash income, re
gardless of what may happen to
their planted crops. For those pro
ducers who cooperate to the fullest
extent and whose crops are severe
ly injured by drought, or other dis
aster, this cash income may be the
means of preventing extreme dis
tress.
• r, i . . . • •
2. Cooperating producers assume
less risk if thejr"tlivert-»a part of
their soil-depleting crop acreage to
soil-conserving crops. The soil-con
serving crops in the main serve to
provide needed feeds and foods. In
this way cash outlay may be re
duced.
3. The program, by tending to
adjust the supply to demand, in
sures a better price for that which
is produced for sale.
4. The soil-conserving crops
grown on land that w T ould other-
