FSA County Committee Nomination Period Open

The Farm Service Agency is taking nominations in the 2022 local FSA county committee election process. Farmers, ranchers and other agricultural producers have until August 1 to nominate eligible candidates to serve on 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 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
