The Executive Director for Nebraska’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) says supply chain issues could create additional challenges for disaster relief programs.
John Burge tells Brownfield there’s a gap between reimbursement and availability of fencing supplies in the market. “It’s clearly an issue. We have an issue not only with inflation and cost related to that, but also in terms of supply.”
Producers can be eligible to receive up to 75 percent of the cost to replace fences damaged by natural disasters through the Emergency Conservation Program (ECP).
