F SA seeking committee nominations
The US. Department of Agriculture
Farm Service Agency reminds farmers and
ranchers that they have until Aug. 3, 2020,
to nominate eligible candidates to serve on
local FSA county committees. Agricultural

county committee. Individuals may nomi-
nate themselves or others as a candidate.

Administrative Area where a committee
member’s three-year term is expiring. For
2020, an election will be held in LAA
3, which includes all the area south of a month. Members serve three-year
windows across the front of
