Program Compliance CONSERVATION COMPLIANCE DETERMINES FARM P ROGRAM ELIGIBILITY To participate in the 1988 farm programs, Muriel Park, County Executive Director of the Roosevelt County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, said producers must certify that they have not and will not violate sodbuster and swampbuster regulations during the 1988 crop year. "Farmers who do not certify will be ineligible for program benefits for the 1988 crop year on all land in which they have an interest," Park said. Program benefits include price and income supports, disaster payments, crop insurance, Farmers Home Administration loans, farm storage facility loans, and other USDA program benefits. Producers who have recently cultivated highly erodible land for producing an agricultural commodity, must certify that they are producing the crop under an approved conservation plan, if the land has not been exempted from these requirements. Park said highly erodible land is exempt through January I, 1990, if it was planted to an agricultural commodity or used as conservation use acreage (CUA), or acreage conservation reserve (ACR) at least one-year between 1981 and 1985. "By allowing producers to include crops produced on these acres as part of their base acreage for various farm support programs, we, in effect, would be encouraging increased soil erosion and loss of wetlands." The ASCS official said sodbuster and swampbuster provisions encourage the reduction of soil erosion and the retention of wetlands, and will reduce production of surplus commodities. Tourism Funds Available "REGIONAL COOPERATIVE MARKETING FUNDS AVAILABLE" Missouri River Country's Regional Cooperative Advertising Program will provide funds to tourism-related organizations within the region to promote an area or event as a travel destination.
