Sec. 1333. National acreage allotment

    The Secretary shall proclaim a national acreage allotment for each 
crop of wheat. The amount of the national acreage allotment for any crop 
of wheat shall be the number of acres which the Secretary determines on 
the basis of the projected national yield and expected underplantings 
(acreage other than that not harvested because of program incentives) of 
farm acreage allotments will produce an amount of wheat equal to the 
national marketing quota for wheat for the marketing year for such crop, 
or if a national marketing quota was not proclaimed, the quota which 
would have been determined if one had been proclaimed.

increases in acreage allotments for farms based upon small-farm base

production on the increased acreages resulting from the small-farm 
exemption pursuant to section 1335 of this title.

production on increases in acreage allotments for small farms and on 
increased acreages resulting from the small-farm exemption, make 
available a supply equal to the national marketing quota for provision 
for determination of the national acreage allotment as such acreage as 
on the basis of the national average yield would produce an amount, 
which, with estimated carryover and imports, would make available a 
supply equal to a normal year's domestic consumption and exports plus 30 
per centum and prescribing a national acreage allotment for wheat for 
1938 at sixty-two million five hundred thousand acres and for any year
