New Topics / Alerts for the week...
 

I have added a link to a new webpage which will cover the new Livestock Gross Margin - Dairy insurance program.  You can find this link below in the Topics menu.

Attention....  MILC Signup begins December 22, 2008.  There have been a number of clarifications issued.  Check out the MILC Program Information link to the FSA MILC website for details on the revised program.  [This link is located in the Topic Menu box.] It is critical that you carefully read the FSA Notice LD-606 as this address all of the questions about sign-up and start month selections.  If you have already completed the sign-up and believe you made an error, you have an opportunity to change your start month if you act soon.  Contact your county FSA Office.  I have added a page which shows the current and projected payments by FY month.  I will update this table each month.  If you like doing your own projections, you can download a copy of the Excel Workbook and generate your own projections.
