1972 Wheat Program
Domestic wheat allotments
for 1972 were mailed to 3,673
farms in the County on August
31.
These allotments do not limit
the acreage of wheat that may
be grown They are established
to determine the acreage that
must be set-aside and the pay
ments that can be earned un
der the 1972 Wheat Program.
The 1972 domestic wheat allot
ment for Lancaster County is
12,135 acres, according to Miss
Dorothy Neel, ASCS executive
director.
Basically, the wheat program
is similar to 1971. There is no
limit on acreage. To participate
a farmer must set-aside 83 per
cent of the farm domestic allot
ment, and maintain the Con
serving Base established for the
farm
About 850 acres of wheat al
lotment will be lost in the coun
ty because farmers did not
plant 90 per cent of the allot
ment in 1971, or else did not re
port the acreage to the office
For 1971, corn or grain sor
ghum in excess of 50 per cent
of the feed grain base, could be
considered wheat acreage for
history purposes For 1972, bar
ley is considered a feed grain

and can be substituted for
wheat acreage. Also, acreage
planted to soybeans will be con
sidered planted to wheat or
feed grain, if needed for his
tory preservation.
Allotments were reduced 20
per cent from 1971 on those
farms that received “zero” as
planted or considered planted
to wheat in 1971. After three
years of “zero” planting, the
wheat allotment will be drop
ped.
Basic provisions for proven
wheat yields are still in effect
A farmer may elect to establish
a yield based on actual produc
tion, rather than the one estab
lished by the County Commit
tee on a judgment 1)3818. The

Prices trended lower on medi
ums Undertone continues weak
and unsettled although there
was a faint glimmer of hope
noticeable locally as fancy large
and extra large supplies moved
into a more favorable supply
demand balance. However,
large, not of top fancy quality,
are liberal and trade indicates
strong possibility of arrivals
from future board deliveries.
Mediums and smalls still at
burdensome proportions des
pite attractive pricing of medi
ums at retail levels in this
morning news media and sche
duling pf more early next week.
Wholesale movement locally is
still slow and unaggressive
while carton orders varied from
slow to occasionally good.
Outlined
base period for establishing
1972 wheat yields is 1968, 1969
and 1970.
To prove the yield, a farmer
must have planted and harvest
ed wheat acreage in each of
these three years, and be able
to provide reliable proof of pro
duction on the harvested acres.
A written request must be filed
by September 15.
The signup period for the
1972 wheat program will be
February 28 through April 7,
1972. All farm operators who
wish to participate in the pro
gram must come to the county
ASCS office at that time and
sign their intentions to partici
pate.
