Farmers Guide to FSA County Committee Elections Now Available

A new, free publication is available online from Farmers’ Legal Action Group (FLAG). Farmers’ Guide to County Committee Elections in the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) explains the rules governing the election of FSA County Committee members. Because FSA County Committees exercise significant power over the delivery of FSA services at the county level, FLAG says, the election of Committee members should be of great interest to all farmers and ranchers who participate in FSA programs. The 41-page guide explains the election process and covers who is eligible to run for the County Committee and who is eligible to vote in the election.
