FSA Offers Support and Relief Programs

摘要

The USDA Texas Farm Service Agency (FSA) offers several disaster assistance programs that can help producers recover from devastating natural disasters such as wildfires. "Mother Nature has not been kind to Texas farmers and ranchers in 2011," said James Douglass, Acting State Executive Director for Texas FSA. "Although not a remedy to the extensive hardships and heartbreak experienced by many producers this year, it's my hope that FSA's disaster programs and loans can alleviate some of the financialstrain producers have suffered from the devastating impact of the recent natural disasters."FSA offers disaster assistance and low-interest loan programs to assist agricultural producers statewide in their recovery efforts following wildfires or similar qualifying natural disasters.
