Consider Contracted Acres
As Rented To Government
Land taken out of corn under the
corn hog contract cannot be used to
produce a crop to be marketed either
directly or indirectly, nor cun feed be
grown on the land if that feed is used
instead of feed that would be grown on
other land. There are general regula
tions of the Secretary of Agriculture
which govern the use of all land under
Adjustment contracts, whether cotton
wheat or corn.
If, for example, a farmer plants the
land taken out of corn to grass or
clover and then uses the pasture for
cattle or hogs, he is marketing the
pasture indirectly thru the livestock,
and breaking his agreement.
If the farmer pastures his work
horses on the grass or clover, the
horses will not be eating grass, hay,
or grain produced on other land. The
farmer would therefore be relieving
other land for the production of other
feed or grains either on his own farm
or some other farm. He would be
breaking the contract.
Nebraska corn-hog administrators
cannot see how farmers can get around
these two provisions. For all practical
purposes the land taken out of corn
is out of production for the 1934
harvest.
Many farmers regard the corn ben
fit payments ns cash rent for the land
taken out of corn. They would not
think of renting some of their land to
an individual for cash and then rais
ing a crop on the land. They believe
that is the spirit of the corn-hog re
duction idea.
These farmers intend to seed the
land down to clover, alfalfa, perman
ent pasture, plant some to trees, fal
low some to kill weeds or store up
moisture and handle the land in other
ways to put it into good shape to pro
duce a crop in 1935. They will use
the benefit payments to pay the taxes
and interest and help keep up their
farm expenses.
