Officials with the Montgomery County Extension Service say a Farm Bill meeting set for Wednesday evening (Jan. 22nd) in Red Oak, has been delayed by one week. The meeting, to take place at the Gold Fair Building (1809 N. 4th St.), will be held instead on Jan. 29th, from 6:30-until 9-p.m.  The meeting is open to the public, and there is no registration fee, but pre-registration is requested.

During the Jan. 29th meeting, farm operators and landowners can learn about the program election and enrollment process regarding the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and/or Price Loss Coverage (PLC) commodity crop programs. Also on hand will be ISU Extension Family Life Specialists to share strategies for farm stress management. Participation is welcome for farm operators and landowners regardless of their county of operation.
