Show A. A. A. Program Extended To Later Date Closing date for carrying out production practices for payment pay-ment under the 1943 Agricultural Conservation program has been extended from September 30 to November 10, 1943, announces G. Frank Nelson, chairman of the Utah county AAA committee. This extension will mean that the 1F44 program year will begin be-gin on November 11, explains Mr. Nelson. The county AAA committeeman committee-man points out that goal of this program is the conservation of farm and range land, the restoration, re-storation, insofar as practicable, of a permanent vegetative cover en land unsuited to the continued continu-ed production practices that will conserve and improve soil fertility, fer-tility, will promote conservation and better utilization of water, will conserve and increase range and pasture forage, will prevent wind and water erosion, and will increase production of agricultural agricul-tural commodities required in the war effort. Practices for which payments will be made in 1943 include: application of superphosphate; seeding wheatgrasses, strawberry, strawber-ry, ladino, or white clovers; conservation con-servation of grazing land by the maintenance of forage residue in accordance with standard procedures approved by the AAA; water development; irrigation practices; eradication or control of noxious weeds; and contour farming. |
