Many provisions of the re-
cently announced 1970 wheat
program are required by law
while others are optional with
the Secretary of Agriculture.
One part Of the program re-
quired by law is tliuflk/i pay-
ment farm acreagtjB^ersion
which is written specifically in-
to the law.
_ Of course, all the provisions
of the wheat program are auth-
orized by Congress. Bui the law-
makers made some of the provi-
sions. mandatory, reserved
others for determination by the
Secretary of Agriculture.
The following is a summary
to the quota.
The law also provides that
projected yield per acre and
normal underplantings must be
considered in setting the nation-
al wheat allotment. Underplant-
ing as the result of paid diver-
sion cannot be considered in
establishing the allotment. All
other factors which would re:
suit in underplanting or over-
planting must be considered.
The 1970 projected yield was
determined to be 28.9 bushels
per acre. Net underplantings
were determined to be 2 million
acres.
Taking into account, as re-
of the 1070 wheat allotmogt and I (,u*r/d ^ .]**'* national
program, highlighting the re- ! 'I00'8 °f 1,2®s rnl l0IJ
quirements of the law and the i,hr prn>e(,,pd y‘eld of 28.9 bu
options exercised by Secretary j shels per acre' and the eshma
of Agriculture Clifford M. Har-
din.
The nation a I. who a t a U ot me n t
for 1970 was sel at 45.5 million
acres by the Secretary. But he
was required bv law first to set
a quota, which is the amount
of wheat needed to meet export
ted net underplanting of 2 mil-
lion acres, Secretary Hardin set
a 1970 national wheat allotment
of 45.5 million acres.
Just as in setting the national
wheat allotment, so in setting
wheat program provisions some
are required by .law. some are
and domestic requirements,
j optional with the Secretary of
ing into aespunt the wheat held
by the Commodity Credit Cor-
poration as carryover stocks.
Requirements for 1970 ware
estimated to be 1,310 million
bushels. This was adjusted
dnwhward by 55 million bushels,
as a desired reduction in CCC
stocks. So a qucla of 1.255 mil-
lion bushels was arrived at for
1970.
The law provides that the
Secretary of Agriculture shall
set as tile, wheal, allotment the
number of acres which will pro-
duce the amount of wheat equal
