A Community Checkoff Plan Could Make a Difference

Abstract: One option to support economic development in rural America is a Community Checkoff Plan. Such a plan would allocate a part of farm program payments to the county or area in which the participating land base exists. Farmers are acquainted with checkoff concepts. To apply it to rural redevelopment needs would be a solid step in coping with the continuing tearing of the socioeconomic fabric of rural America.
