FFA HAPPENINGS
Operation Green Stripe
The Grassland Chapter of FFA
has been named one of several
chapters in Pennsylvania to parti
cipate in “Operation Green
Stripe,” a program to protect
streams.
Participating FFA chapters can
earn $6OO or more for chapter
activities by enrolling farmers in a
program to establish grassy buffer
strips between farm fields and
streams. Research has shown that
buffer strips can significantly
reduce the amount of topsoil that
washes off fields into streams.
The program is coordinated by
Heavy duty single-phase "Hi t. .. „
Torque" motors designed , are ideally suited
specifically for severe farm duty ' or tou 9' l applications
applications. These capacitor such 35 P um ps,
start/induction run motors conveyors, poultry
provide high starting torque, equipment and other
while requiring only normal ' arm du, y machinery.

the state FFA in cooperation with
Monsanto Co. of Sl Louis, which
originated the program in 1992
and provides funding to local
chapters. Cooperating Agway
retailers across the state will pro
vide free seed to farmers who
agree to establish a buffer strip.
Locally, Agway will provide seed
and technical assistance to farmers
recruited by the chapter.
“Erosion of farm fields and the
resulting stream sedimentation is a
serious problem for aquatic plants
and wildlife as well as water treat
ment plants,” said Tom Hoogh
eem, environmental field services
director for Monsanto.
Green stripes along streams not
only reduce soil erosion, they les
sen the amount of farm chemicals
that wash into streams in trace
amounts during heavy rainfall,
Hoogheem said.
In selecting FFA chapters for
the program, emphasis was given
to chapters in areas where erosion
and stream sedimentation are seri
ous problems, but a chapter’s
enthusiasm and creative ideas for
implementing the environmental
education program were also
considered.
Clifford Day, local FFA advis
er, said he hopes many local far
mers will agree to establish buffer
strips on their farms.
