Set-Aside Acreage
Some principal requirements
in set-aside acreage provisions of
the 1972 farm programs have
been outlined by Fred G.
Seldomridge, chairman of the
Lancaster County Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation
Committee(ASC), in response to
continuing questions from far
mers.
The 638 farmers in Lancaster
County signed up in the feed
grain and wheat programs have a
vital interest in knowing and
complying with set-aside rule in
order to earn full farm progiam
payments, according to
Seldomridge.
Purpose of set-aside in the feed
grain and wheat programs under
the three-year Agricultural Act of
1970 is to help reduce the
potential American agriculture
has for excess crop production.
Farmers in the set-aside
programs give up the use of some
of their productive acres in order
to help achieve an effective
balance between supply and
demand. For that reason, far
mers are asked to select land for
set-aside that has the same
average productivity as the
program cropland on the farm.
Farm payments may be reduced
or lost if tiie average productivity
provision is not followed.

Set-aside land must be de
signated and certified by June
15. That means producers must
come into the ASCS county office
by that date to give the location of
their set-aside land and certify
they are in compliance with all
set-aside provisions.
Producers are cautioned that
no changes are allowed after they
have certified compliance. “A
farmer certifies that he has set
aside the acreage and has
complied and will continue to
$ 37 Million in Farm
Loan Funds Released
The Administration has
released $37 million in farm
operating loan funds, making
available the full $350 million

Secretary of Agriculture Earl L.
Butz announced.
“The $350 million funding puts
the farm operating loan program
at an all-time level,” Secretary
Butz said. “The farm ownership
loan program, with $350 million
also available, and the
emergency loan program, at $l4O
million, also are funded at record

comply with set-aside rules,”
Seldomridge said. After set-aside
is designated and certified by a
producer, his farm may be spot
checked at any time for com
pliance. If the farm is not in
compliance, the producer may
lose some or all of his program
payment.
At a nominal cost, the ASCS
county office offers set-aside
inspection and measurement
service which can provide far
mers ahead of time with a
guarantee of both acceptable
quality and quantity of set-aside
acreage. The deadline date for
designating set-aside was June 8.
The Secretary said the new
loan funds, which will be
available through 1,750 county
offices of USDA’s Farmers Home
Administration, may be used to
buy seed, feed, fertilizer,
livestock, tractor fuel and other
equipment and facilities needed
to run a successful farming
operation. FHA supplies this
credit to family farmers who are
unable to obtain conventional
credit from regular sources at
reasonable rates.
