Farm Bill to be explained

Klamath Falls Herald and News
March 26, 2009

   The Klamath County Farm Service Agency, along with the Natural Resource Conservation Service and Rural Development, will hold informational meetings and an open house to provide information about changes to USDA programs that may impact eligibility under the Farm Bill. 

   The Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008, also called the Farm Bill, is now being implemented by the USDA. 

   Producers in Fa r m Service Agency programs will see changes to payment limitation provisions resulting in reduced payments, and will be required to comply with new gross adjusted income restrictions. 

   Changes being proposed to the Farm Storage Facility Loan program will qualify more commodities for these loans, and the meetings will provide the most up-to-date information to producers. 

   Farm Loan staff will be available to discuss changes to those programs. Staff from the Redmond office of Rural Development, which serves Klamath County, also will be available to discuss Rural Housing Loans and community service projects. 

   For additional information contact Jennifer Simon, executive director of Klamath County Farm Service Agency, at 883-6924, ext. 107, or e-mail Jennifer.simon@or.usda. gov. 

   Anyone requiring special accommodations is asked to contact Simon by Tuesday, March 31.
