2010 DCP/ACRE sign-up under way

[March 04, 2010]  Spring fieldwork will be here before you know it. Right now is a good time to get into your local Farm Service Agency office to enroll in the 2010 Direct and Counter-cyclical and Average Crop Revenue Election programs. Sign-up has begun and will continue through June 1.

All DCP and ACRE participants must sign their contracts annually. There is no provision for accepting late-filed applications, so if all signatures are not obtained by June 1, the farm will be ineligible for all 2010 DCP/ACRE payments.

Producers can visit any USDA Service Center to complete their 2010 DCP/ACRE contract or make use of the FSA Web site. Contact the Lincoln Service Center if you have any questions.
