[QUOTE="GMN, post: 337373, member: 2382"] You have to begin somewhere, when we started out we got cost share for liming, planting etc.. thru the ASCS office, I think now we may have been niave'. I think in some cases it can help with the cost, but by the time you follow all their rules, pure live seed, a certain ENM ratio for lime, etc...I truly think a person would have been able to do it cheaper with the same results. To be eligible for drought plans, etc.. though you have to be signed up with them, and jump thru the loops, to get that "free money", that is if whoever decides that your county should get it, and even if they say you are going to get a program, doesn't mean its guaranteed. Alot of paperwork for sure, and right now I can say I am fed up with our local FSA people. They really do not have a clue on what a dairy person/beef farmer goes through in times that we have had the past 2 years. I'd say still get hooked up with them, but pick and choose the programs you get involved with. GMN [/QUOTE]
