Videotape
Gives Straight
Answers
ST. LOUIS, Mo. As farmers are fil
ing conservation plans for their highly
credible land in the new year, many still
have questions about implementing con
servation measures and complying with
federal conservation guidelines.
A 15-minute videotape featuring a
down-to-earth conversation between Soil
Conservation Service Chief Bill Richards
and four farmers from across the country
answers many of the tough questions
growers with highly credible land ask
about conservation compliance.
In the program, “Straight Talk About
Your Conservation Plan,” Richards tack-"
les issues like flexibility, changing plans,
working with local SCS conservationists,
and understanding the appeal system with
the directness that has marked his tenure
as SCS chief.
The growers in the tape represent four
majpr row-cropping areas and a variety of
commqdities. Randy Cruise of Pleasan
ton, Neb.; Buce Johnson of West Point,
Va; Mark Canning of Pine Bluffs, Wyo.;
and Mike Tate of Huntsville, Ala. pull no
punches, seeking answers to questions
that are both regional and national in
scope.
The videotape will be available at Soil
Conservation Services across the coun
try. The National Com Growers Associa
tion will also be distributing copies to
members who request them, as will the
American Soybean Association and the
National Cotton Council.
The Alliance for Crop Residue Man
agement a conservation coalition
administered through the Conservation
Technology Information Center will
be distributing 10,000 copies of the prog
ram through a grant from ICI. In addition,
ICI Agricultural Products technical sales
representatives will have copies of the
video on hand.
