Th~ <br />amount and type,of treatment needed for each plan Ivill be shown. <br /> <br />Impacts, Costs, and Displays for Alternative Plans <br /> <br />The alternatives will be evaluated to determine the economic, salt and <br />water budget impacts. Evaluation of potential impact on yields, irrigation <br />labor requirements, net returns per crop and return to management for <br />the typical operation will be made. <br /> <br />Implementation Program <br /> <br />Implementation of the proposed program will util ize USDA programs. <br />Consideration will be given to developing special programs to accelerate <br />implementation related to the time frame proposed. <br /> <br />VI.
