The U.S. Department of Agriculture Texas Farm Service Agency has announced a public meeting to solicit comments on a report that examines potential environmental impacts caused by changes to the Conservation Reserve Program enacted by the 2014 Farm Bill

The benefits would come from the Livestock Forage Disaster Program and the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program.

Producers who want to request haying approval must make an appointment with the Lubbock County FSA office and with their local Natural Resources Conservation Service to update their conservation plan to include the new haying activity.
