individual farm, depending upon
the amount and type of land offer
ed for the program. They are:
1. A regular rate which will APP
ply if only part of the eligible land
on the farm is put in the Reserve
or if all eligible land is put in, but
some of it for less than years.
This rate calls for the reduction
(diversion) in Soil Bank base
crops on the farm by the number
of acres put in the Reserve at this
rate. If land offered for the pro-
gram is less productive than the
average for all eligible land on the
farm, this rate will be reduced
proportionately.
2. An incentive rate which will
apply when all eligible land on a
farm is put in the Reserve for at
least years. This is 10 per cent
higher than the regular or diver
sion rate and will apply to every
eligible acre OH the farm put ins the
program. This means that there
will be only one rate for the farm.
In addition, a non-diTersion rate
may apply to farms on which only
part of the eligible land is put in
the program. This rate-50 per
cent of the regular rate-does not
call for a reduction in acreage of
Soil Bank base crops on the farm.
Under Soil Bank regulations, the
overall maximum annual payment
that may be made to an individual
farmer is $4,000.
Chairman Ennis said that any
farm is eligible to participate in
the Conservation Reserve if it has
cropland regularly used for culti-
waited crops or tame hay.

Kent ASC Chairman
Explains Soil Bank Rates

Farmers who may have wonder
ed just how Conservation Reserve
annual payment rates are deter

farms will be interested in an ex-
planation made today by Joseph w.
Ennis, chairman of the Kent Coun-
ty Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation Committee.
Chairman Ennis pointed out that
the Individual farm rates are es-
tablished by the County ASC Com
mittee on the basis of the Soil
Bank law and national program
regulations set up by the u. s. De-
partment of Agriculture under the
law. .
Under the Soil Bank law, the
Secretary of Agriculture este blish-

Conservation Reserve, taking into
consideration value, of the land for
production of crops customarily
grown upon it, prevailing cash
rentals for such land, and the in
centive necessary to contract suf-
.fcient land to make the program
effective.
Under Department regulations,
annual payment rates are set on
the basis of national, State, and
county averages, with the County
ASC office determining the rate for
the Individual farm or part of the
eligible acreage on the farm. The
national average rate of Conserva-
tion Reserve annual payments is
$3.50 per acre for contracts be-
ginning with 1959-an increase
from the $40 average previously
in effect. In Delaware the average
payment rate is $1,000, and in Kent
County the average is $1,000 also
for 1859 contracts.
The county committee sets max
imum farm payment rates for all
farms for which they are request
