Disaster Declarations: Both Sanborn and Jerauld counties have been declared 2012 primary disaster counties due to drought. Normally disaster program payments are made the year after because USDA wants to determine what actual yields and prices were for the disaster crop. We will keep you posted of any disaster signup requirements.
CRP Hay Removal Extension to Nov. 15, 2012: the FSA SD State Committee and the Sanborn/Jerauld FSA have authorized an extension of the CRP hay removal deadline for CRP hay approved by the Sanborn/Jerauld COF. If you hayed someone else’s CRP you need to ask them about leaving the hay longer. If you have CRP hay approved by another FSA office you need to check with that county to determine if their deadline has been extended.
