07/27/2016

(KLZA)-- U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Nebraska Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Dan Steinkruger reminds farmers, ranchers and other agricultural producers they have until August 1, to nominate eligible candidates to serve on local FSA county committees.

 FSA county committees help local farmers through their decisions on commodity price support loans, conservation programs and disaster programs, and by working closely with FSA county executive directors.

 To be eligible to hold office as a county committee member, individuals must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA, be eligible to vote in a county committee election and live in the local administrative area where they are running. A complete list of eligibility requirements, more information and nomination forms are available at http://www.fsa.usda.gov/elections.

Ballots will be mailed to eligible voters by November 7,  and are due back to the local USDA Service Centers on December 5. The newly elected county committee members will take office January 1, 2017.
