Requires, as a condition of eligibility for such payments, that grain producers devote to approved conservation uses, an amount of cropland not less than a percentage of their 1980 crop planted acreage (15 percent for corn and 10 percent for wheat).
Sets forth formulas for determining the amount of such payments. Sets $1.50 per bushel for both corn and wheat as a payment rate factor in such formulas.
