The sodbuster and swampbuster regulations are in effect now and there are many questions. But many more farmers are going to be affected by the conservation compliance provision, Maxwell says. That provision applies to Dr. Gary H. Brough, O.D. Announces anyone who is farming highly credible land. It says that anyone farming highly credible land has until Jan. 1, 1990, to develop and begin to apply a conservation plan, and until Jan. 1. 1995, to have it fully in effect. The Soil Conservation Service will assist in preparation of these plans. SCS estimates that about 615,000 acres (30 percent) of Utahs cropland are in the highly credible category. This highly credible land is spread throughout the state but, Box Elder, Cache, Millard, and San Juan Counties contain more than 50 percent of them.

The tolerable levels in Utah, often referred to as T, are generally -, Many of the conservation plans written in the past may need to be updated or entirely redone, Maxwell says.
