The planting of permanent pastures, a primary need of Mississippi agriculture, is included in the list of farm practices for which fanners will receive payments under the new national soil conservation program, advises E. H. White, assistant state manager, AAA. The rat payment is $2.00 per acre if the pasture is established on cropland between January 1, .1936 f.nd October 31, 1936.
Pastures may be planted to perennial grasses or grass and legume mixtures. The state extension service recommends a mixture of grasses and legumes as legumes increase the amount and improves the quality of grazing. Legumes ere rich in both minerals and proteins. In addition they add nitrogen to the The total soil building payment for a farm may not exceed the soil building allowance. This allowance may be calculated by multiplying the number of acres used exclusively for soil conserving crops in 1936, plus the number of acres planted to legumes following truck crops, by $1.00." For example, a farm with 30 acres in soil conserving crops in 1936 may qualify for a aiaximum of $30 of oil building payments.
For a farm with 30 acres of conserving crops and 10 acres in legumes following truck crops, the maximum soil building payment would be $40. County agents are urging farmers to establish a sufficient acreage in permanent pastures as they provide the cheapest food that can be grown and at the same time are most effective in controlling erosion and improving soil fertility.
