US Secretary of Ag Sonny Perdue Discusses the Reopening of FSA County Offices

Wed, 23 Jan 2019 05:41:49 CST

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue today announced that all Farm Service Agency (FSA) offices nationwide will soon reopen to provide additional administrative services to farmers and ranchers during the lapse in federal funding. Certain FSA offices have been providing limited services for existing loans and tax documents since January 17, and will continue to do so through January 23. Beginning January 24, however, all FSA offices will open and offer a longer list of transactions they will accommodate.

    

Additionally, Secretary Perdue announced that the deadline to apply for the Market Facilitation Program, which aids farmers harmed by unjustified retaliatory tariffs, has been extended to February 14. The original deadline had been January 15. Other program deadlines may be modified and will be announced as they are addressed.


Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue spoke with farm broadcast journalist Max Armstrong about the announcement- you can hear their conversation by clicking on the LISTEN BAR below.
