There is no way to prove that you had a 5% loss. You might have gotten more than it was worth. There is no baseline because of the difference in cattle value.VaCowman said:

I called today. The lady told me that they where making a list of peoples names as they called in and starting next Tuesday they would begin to call the people back and setting up a appointment for them to fill out a application. She was unsure of the details though.
Just an update...
Just got a call from my FSA County Director, and yes, it was 8:30PM on a FRIDAY night! They were calling folks that had called over the last few weeks/month inquiring about the CFAP program to schedule in office appointments to sign up. Sign ups start Tuesday, but my appointment isn't until first week of June. One thing I did learn was that the payment rates posted on the website are a bit misleading. For the part 2 (only because I can't remember part 1 payments, but their rates are the same) most cattle payments were listed at $33/head. Of the $33.00, your direct payment will be 80% of that. So lets say you have 100 head of cows, your direct payment will be 80% of $33 X 100. Hope that makes sense. Same goes for part 1, 80% of the payment rate listed for each class of animal you have that qualifies, Fats, slaughter cows, calves< or > 600#, and OTHER (replacement females, bulls, etc.) Maybe that will help clear some things up. I have no clue what they are paying on other commodities, I just have a few head of cattle so I didn't pay much attention to that part.
