A set-aside program should be an emergency standby, established as a preparedness measure. It should not operate on a permanent basis or in a period of normal supply.","path":["AR Code","Title 15","Chapter 72","Subchapter 8"],"source_url":"https://oss-data-us.vaquill.ai/v2026.08/us_ar_statutes.parquet","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:41Z","sha256":"55afec4949e29ebadf3d0418fdc7acd1a806a18903e649c2fe264a3232655ea2","source_id":"us-ar","stale":false,"prev":"us-ar/ark.-code-ann.-15-72-706","next":"us-ar/ark.-code-ann.-15-72-802"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
