         CHAPTER 35A--PRICE SUPPORT OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES
 
              SUBCHAPTER II--BASIC AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES
 
Sec. 1445i. Multiyear set-aside contracts for 1986 through 1990 
        crops of wheat, feed grains, upland cotton, and rice
        
    Notwithstanding any other provision of law:
        (1) The Secretary of Agriculture may enter into multiyear set-
    aside contracts for a period not to extend beyond the 1990 crops. 
    Such contracts may be entered into only as a part of the programs in 
    effect for the 1986 through 1990 crops of wheat, feed grains, upland 
    cotton, and rice, and only producers participating in one or more of 
    such programs shall be eligible to contract with the Secretary under 
    this section. Producers agreeing to a multiyear set-aside agreement 
    shall be required to devote the set-aside acreage to vegetative 
    cover capable of maintaining itself through such period to provide 
    soil protection, water quality enhancement, wildlife production, and 
    natural beauty. Grazing of livestock under this section shall be 
    prohibited, except in areas of a major disaster, as determined by 
    the President, if the Secretary finds there is a need for such 
    grazing as a result of such disaster. Producers entering into 
    agreements under this section shall also agree to comply with all 
    applicable State and local laws and regulations governing noxious 
    weed control.
        (2) The Secretary shall provide cost-sharing incentives to farm 
    operators for the establishment of vegetative cover, whenever a 
    multiyear set-aside contract is entered into under this section.
        (3) The Secretary may issue such regulations as the Secretary 
    determines necessary to carry out this section.
        (4) The Secretary shall carry out the program authorized by this 
    section through the Commodity Credit Corporation.
