[Ctyfc] Follow up on winter storm resources

[Small Producers Initiative]

Hi all,

I made a public, shared folder in Drive with notes from today's webinar. FSA, RMA, and NRCS all have disaster programs available: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MD3ed7dn32JNnqGzX06NkGTqb8YxIQij?usp=sharing

The following programs are included in the notes:

  *   Livestock Indemnity Program
  *   Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybee & Farm Raised Fish
  *   Tree Assistance Program
  *   Emergency Conservation Program
  *   Emergency Farm Loans
  *   EQIP Natural Disaster Funding

One barrier I see is, although there's no cost to apply to FSA disaster programs, if you don't already work with FSA and/or don't have your acreage reported, you will have to work with them to do so for a fee. And when in doubt, call your county office to figure out if your specific situation applies.

I'm by no means an expert on how these programs work but I'm here to help figure it out if you need. Hoping this helps someone.
