How to Work with Farm Service Agency (FSA)

RAFI-USA's project Resources for Resilient Farms focuses on outreach and technical assistance for USDA programs that could support greater farm resilience for those within RAFI-USA’s Farmers of Color Network and other farmers who wish to access the materials and webinars.
The mission of USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) is to equitably serve all farmers, ranchers, and agricultural partners through the delivery of effective, efficient agricultural programs for all of us in the U.S. This includes administering credit and loan programs, conservation programs, disaster recovery programs, and farm marketing programs through a national network of offices.
But for many farmers - especially farmers of color or those not farming commodities on a large scale - the idea of working with FSA can bring up feelings of anxiety, skepticism, or distrust.
This webinar took place on April 12 at 4:00 p.m. and covered how and why to work with your local FSA office, what the FSA office can do for farmers, how to prepare for an FSA office visit, and how to troubleshoot when you have problems or questions.

Difficult to focus on the content due to the usage of "um".

I could do without the gender and transition and racial stuff that’s very offensive to me.
