The program would focus on conservation efforts in areas such as land, forests, animals, and water resources. The bill has been carefully designed to ensure it does not interfere with existing commercial or conservation work, and enrollment would be voluntary for youth aged 17 to 23. The program is seen as a way to address unemployment while also addressing critical conservation needs in the country.

The Synod's committee on social education and action conducted a thorough study on the issue and reaffirmed its support for the limitation. The report highlights potential harms to farmers, coercion in acreage limitation, and the lack of benefits to small landholders in repealing the limitation. The report also addresses concerns about land speculation and the impact on rural life. The Bureau of Reclamation is urged to uphold the 160-acre limitation provision of the Federal reclamation law for the Central Valley Project. Text
