Drought Resources Webinar Series, Part 1: Series Introduction and FSA Drought Resources

The Drought Resources Webinar Series will include three one-hour webinars focusing on different drought-related topics, including herd management during drought, Natural Resources Conservation Service drought-resources, Farm Service Agency (FSA) drought-resources, and PRF insurance for drought conditions. We will explore the challenges of drought and the relevancy of these resources to agricultural producers in New Mexico.

For this webinar, we will introduce the whole Drought Resources Webinar Series. Then, Lisa Garay, Executive Director of Valencia County FSA will provide information on drought-related programs available through the FSA from the USDA. Lisa will focus on the FSA crop insurance program, livestock forage program, emergency livestock assistance program, and livestock indemnity program.

Each webinar will be offered twice in the same day, once midday and once in the evening.
