ASCS Farm Notes

1963 FEED GRAIN PROGRAM: Notices of base acreage, yields and payment rates applicable to the 1963 feed grain program will be mailed to producers, who grew com, grain sorghum or barley in 1959-1960, very soon. The sign-up period will be from February 1 to March 22, 1963. The ‘63 program is similar to the 1961 and 62 programs. One of the major differences is that a producer who is in compliance under the 1963 feed grain program, and produces his permitted corn acreage will be eligible for price support under the loan and purchase agreement programs on the total bushels of corn produced on the farm. In previous years, he could only receive price support on the number of bushels determined in accordance with the established yield for the farm. Also, in 1963, the producer who has a base of 25 acres or less and elects to divert all of the acreage will receive payment on 50 per cent of the county price support rate times the normal established yield for the entire diversion. Producers urged to watch their mail, read their carefully, and if they have-, any questions, they should call at the county office and our personnel will be glad to discuss their problems with them. 1962 FEED GRAIN, WHEAT DIVERSION PAYMENTS COMPLETED: Payments to farmers who took part in the 1962 feed grain and wheat stabilization programs are about completed. ■— Adams county farmers diverted 11,293 acres from corn production into conserving uses totaling $448,468. 754 acres was diverted under the wheat stabilization program, totaling $25,118. Nationally, 1.3 million farms participated in the 1962 feed grain program and 800,000 in the wheat stabilization program. Altogether, about 45 milion acres were signed for diversion. 1962 diversion-program payments helped farmers maintain their income during the preiod of adjusting production to more realistic levels, thus continuing the trend started with the 1961 feed grain program to bring about a belter balance between feed grain production and needs. By October 1, 1963, feed grain'stocks are expected to be about 28 million tons below the 84.7-million-ton level of October 1, 1961, and wheat stocks will be down about 100 million bushels next July 1. FARM GAINS IN 1962 CITED BY FREEMAN: Sharp reductions in farm surpluses, largely through the successful feed grain and wheat stabilization programs, stand out as a major achievement of 1962, secretary of agriculture Orville L. Freeman has reported in a year-end summary. Marking a continuation of efforts begun by the secretary in 1961 to halt the constant buildup of surpluses, the reduction in 1962 crops is expected to mean a saving in government costs amounting to at least $550 million. It also means a continuation in 1963 of the more than $1 billion increase in farmer’s realized net income achieved in 1961. “This outstanding achievement goes far toward fulfilling the administration’s twin goal of raising income and reducing surpluses, gearing our agricultural policies to the new economy of abundance,” secretary Freeman declared. About 30 million acres of corn, grain sorghum and barley cropland were diverted by about 1.3 million producers who voluntarily participated in the 1962 feed grain program. By this means, carryover stocks of these three grains will be cut by 400 to 500 million bushels, with an ultimate net savings to the Government of at least $450 million. Under the 1962 wheat stabilization program, more than 800,000 producers diverted more than 12 million acres of wheat cropland to conservation uses, thus cutting wheat production by 265 million bushels below the 1960 crop and by 143 million bushels below the drought-cut 1961 crop. Ultimate savings to the government as a result of the 1962 programs are expected to amount to about SIOO million. These savings, totaling over $550 million, ate being reflected not only in reduced government acquisitions of grain under price-sup-port operations but also is reduced need for storage space. By steadily shifting cropland from grain production to conservation uses, the new diversion programs have accomplished the first major cutback in government held grain since 1953. Government-owned stocks of wheat and five feed grains — corn, grain sorghum barley, oats, and rye —of 2.6 billion bushels on September 30, 1962, were 650 million less than on the same date in 1961, and were the lowest for any quarterly period since March 1959. CONTINUE, STRENGTHEN FARM COMMITTEES, REPORT RECOMMENDS: The farmer-committee system offers the most effective method for

, the secretary of agriculture to meet | his responsibilities to the Congress L for the administration of federally , authorized farm programs and at L the same time be responsive to farmer needs, the special study committee on the farmer committee system has concluded. The committee reports that community, , county, and state committee administration of farm programs be . continued and strengthened. The report was made to secretary of agriculture Orville L. Free- ’ man, who last June asked eight men representing a wide range of | experience in agriculture, public , administration, and political ' science to study and evaluate the , farmer-committee system which [ administers farm programs at state and local levels. In commenting on the special i committee’s report, secretary Freeman pointed out that four major areas for administrative and legislative action had been re- . commended to increase the es- . fectiveness of the farmer-commit-tee system. These concern: (1) ■ Stripping away the maze of regulatory detail, streamlining procedures and thereby improving service to farmers. The goal is to i drastically reduce the volume and detail of regulation and instruction, and to provide more latitude for local ASC committees to administer farm programs in light of local conditions but within the framework of national program objectives. (2) Meeting the need for 1 more qualified personnel, both on the elected community and cotrnty committees and in the appointive offices at local and state levels. | (3) Insuring that the secretary has : the authority to act where he has the responsibility to act. The regulations are being amended to provide the necessary authority. (4) Stepping up in-service train--1 ing and improving administrative ■ practices at all levels. Many of ■ these recommendations have already been put into effect with the reorganization of ASCS. The in- : service training program is being ’ expanded to provide higher professional standards for county and : state office personnel, farm field- ■ men and elected committee of--1 ficials. Regarding the second major area-dealing with the need for more qualified presonnel, the secretary stated that new procedures are being developed so that appointive positions will be filled by the best qualified person, without regard to political pressures. “For elected positions on community and county committees,” he said, “we will ask congress to amend present laws to provide staggered 3-year terms of office, with one member and one alternate to be elected each year, with a limit of three consecutive terms. We also will ask congress to provide that county committeemen will be selected by all community committeemen, instead of by the chairman of the community committees, as is the practice currently We believe that the action to place greater responsibility locally will ■ enhance the prestige of the committees and will encourage the election of the most competent local leaders.” 1 Expressing his personal thanks to the members of the study committee, secretary Freeman said that, as a result of the time, energy and thought given to this project, “we have an excellent report and study of the farmer committee system. Agriculture and the farmer will benefit from it.” 1963 AGRICULTURAL CONSERVATION PROGRAM: Farmers are called at the county office every day, to file requests ■ for cost-share assistance to carry ' out needed conservation practices during 1963. Again, we especially urge farmers who have never received cost-share in past years, to study their conservation needs and call ' at the office during the remain--1 der of the initial sign-up period ! (which ends February 8, 1963) and | discuss problems with bur personnel. We would like to see conserva--1 tion practices carried out on the most needed farms and for the ! most needed practices. ! We also remind farmers that

funds are limited and all requests probably cannot be approved. All requests must be approved by the county committee, in accordance with regulations and available funds. Practices include underground drainage, open drainage, sod waterways, dams, pits and ponds (livestock and wildlife), application of limestone to grasses or legumes and others. Approval of the application of limestone is determined by a Purdue soil test, which is mandatory in Adams and some surrounding counties. In the opinion of the ASC development committee, soil tests are very beneficial, since the correct amount of limestone will be applied in accordance with the need of the soil. Overall, this is a monetary savings. 1963 WHEAT ACREAGE MEASURMENTS: Farm reporters are visiting certain farms to measure wheat acreage. We urge wheat producers to assist the reporter in measuring the wheat acreage, in fact, the reporter has been instructed to make no measurements without the assistance of the farm operator or owner. By helping the reporter, the producer knows no error has been made.
