Show Signup for sot-aside program The signup period for the 1979 feed grain-wheat set-aside set-aside programs will be February 15 through April 30, according to Ray Fitzgerald, Fitz-gerald, Administrator of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agri-culture's Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Conser-vation Service (ASCS). The signups will be held in ASCS county offices. This year producers may certify their fall -seeded crops barley and winter wheat during signup and not have to make a separate visit to the county ASCS office, Fitzgerald said. The signup period, which had been tentatively set to end in mid-April, is being lengthened two weeks to give county ASCS employees sufficient suf-ficient time to handle the added workload of simultaneous simul-taneous certification, he said. Fitzgerald also said farm -ers should consider taking advantage of pre -m easure -ment service before planting to guarantee the size of their fields. County ASCS offices have details of the pre-measurement pre-measurement service. |
