LEWISTON – Jane Harden, executive director of USDA’s Farm Service Agency in Lewiston, announced that eligible farmers who suffered quantity losses to their crops in recent years can enroll in the Crop Disaster Program 2005-2007 at local FSA service centers.

FSA will announce and conduct sign-up for quality losses as soon as possible.

The program provides benefits to farmers who suffered losses to the 2005-2007 crops from natural disasters and related conditions. Producers who incurred qualifying losses in 2005, 2006 or 2007 must choose only one year to receive benefits.

Harden also reminded farmers and other livestock producers that they can apply to receive benefits under the Livestock Compensation Program and Livestock Indemnity Program.
