HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — Farmers and ranchers have until Aug. 3, 2020, to nominate eligible candidates to serve on local U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency county committees.
Agricultural producers who participate in an FSA program may be nominated for candidacy, and individuals may nominate themselves.
"The Aug. 3 deadline is quickly approaching,” said Lana Atkinson, executive director for FSA in Madison County. "If you know of a great candidate or want to nominate yourself to serve on your local county committee, contact your FSA office before the deadline to submit the nomination form. I especially encourage the nomination of beginning farmers and ranchers, as well as women and minorities. This is your opportunity to have a say in how federal programs are delivered in your county.”
