So learning about our FSA programs is an important step for producers to take.” Producers need to document the number and kind of live- stock that died resulting from these winter storms. Producers should timely notify the Rutherford County FSA offi ce of these losses. Consider situations where producers are transporting feed to their livestock. Producers should document these ad- ditional costs.” FSA administers several programs that help producers re- cover from livestock deaths that are beyond normal mortality rates, losses of purchased and/or harvested forage, and with the additional costs of providing or transporting feed. Among the key programs are the Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) and the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program (ELAP). For livestock death losses to be eligible under LIP, producers must fi le a notice of loss with their local FSA offi ce within 30 calendar days from when the loss is apparent to the producer. Fact sheets for these two programs can be found at the Rutherford County FSA offi ce, (contact info) or at FSA.usda. gov (click on Newsroom, then Fact Sheets).. Davis encouraged producers to use Hay Net on the FSA (http://www.fsa.usda.gov/haynet), an online service website. that allows producers with hay and those who need hay to post ads so they can make connections. Hay Net is a popular site for farmers and ranchers who have an emergency need, such as the one caused by the current wintry conditions. In- dividual ads can be posted free of charge by producers who complete a simple online registration form the fi rst time they use the site. “We encourage all who suffered a disaster due to the recent cold weather and blizzards to read the fact sheets and visit with the staff at the Rutherford County FSA offi ce concerning a quick start in the recovery process,” added Davis.
