[February 21, 2007]
The next meeting of Farmers Supporting
Independent Agriculture is Tuesday, Feb. 27, at 7 p.m. at the Logan
County Farm Bureau, 120 S. McLean St. in Lincoln.
|
At the meeting we will continue our work on FSIA's rural
community reinvestment projects and related issues facing family
farmers and rural communities. This is an important meeting that
will focus on:
-
Rollout of the
FSIA Family Farm and Community Loan program, which provides
low-interest operating loans to family farmers who purchase
their agricultural supplies from local dealers.
-
Continuing work
that addresses the high cash rent policy for University of
Illinois-owned farmland, which costs local communities at
least $2 million per year.
We hope to see you Tuesday.
