DON’T WAIT! CALL YOUR LOCAL FSA OFFICE TODAY! ACRE/DCP PROGRAM ENROLLMENT DEADLINE APPROACHING

STILLWATER, Okla., May 17, 2011 – Francie Tolle, executive director of the Oklahoma Farm Service Agency (FSA), would like to remind Oklahoma producers that June 1, 2011 is the enrollment deadline for the 2011 Average Crop Revenue Election (ACRE) Program or the traditional Direct and Counter-cyclical Program (DCP).

“It is critical for producers to complete the enrollment process as soon as possible," said Tolle. "Producers must contact their local FSA office to set up appointments before the June 1, 2011 deadline.”

All signatures of producers receiving a share in DCP/ACRE payments are required by the June 1 deadline.

"More than $152 million in direct payments were issued in fiscal year 2010 to Oklahoma producers," stated Tolle. "These payments are an important part of the farm safety net because they help protect the farmers who provide America and the world with a reliable stream of food and commodities by buffering them from the effects of revenue declines.”

For more information about the DCP/ACRE programs please visit your local FSA office or online at www.fsa.usda.gov/ok.

Farm Service Agency has offices throughout Oklahoma; local offices are listed in the United States Government section of the phone book or can be found by visiting www.fsa.usda.gov/ok.
