Sec. 101. Section 1001 of the Food and Agriculture Act of 1977 is amended by inserting “(a)” after the section designation and adding a new subsection (b) as follows: “(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, whenever a set-aside is in effect for one or more of the 1978 through 1981 crops of wheat, feed grains, and upland cotton, the Secretary may increase the established price for any such commodity by the amount the Secretary determines appropriate to compensate producers for participation in such set-aside. In determining the amount of any such increase, the Secretary shall take into account changes in the cost of production resulting from participation in the set-aside involved. If the established price is increased for any commodity for which a set-aside is in effect, the Secretary may increase the established price for any other commodity in such amount as the Secretary determines necessary for effective operation of the program. The Secretary shall adjust any increase in the established price to reflect, in whole or in part, any land diversion payments for the crop for which an increase is determined.”.
