BATES COUNTY, Mo – University of Missouri Extension and USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA), will host an educational meeting on Monday, December 15th from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Antique Tractor Village (Kitchen) in Adrian, MO, located at the intersection of Interstate 49 and 18 Highway.
The meeting is free, but registration is requested. Individuals who are interested in participating should register by December 12th by calling the Bates County Extension Office (660)679-4167.
The 2014 Farm Bill contains several provisions that enable farmers and landowners to make decisions regarding their involvement in federal farm programs. Landowners will have the opportunity to reallocate base acres on individual farms as well as update yield information that is used to determine some farm program payments. Additionally, farmers will have the opportunity to elect to participate in the new commodity programs—Price Loss Coverage (PLC) and Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC).
They hope this meeting will aid in your decision making process as the choices that you make concerning base and yield updates, as well as ARC and PLC elections, will be in effect through 2018.
