September 30th key for Livestock Forage aid

The USDA’s Farm Service Agency director says livestock producers need to request an appointment before September 30th if they are applying for disaster assistance in the farm bill’s Livestock Forage Program.

“Any payments that are issued after September 30th are subject to a 7.3% sequester reduction,” says FSA director Juan Garcia.

He urges producers to contact their local FSA office to make an appointment which they can also do online. Many livestock producers are eligible for the program from 2011 through even this year.
