I've been trying to read and understand the governments Direct and Counter cyclical Payment Program. I'm trying to get started farming and would like to learn more about it. Back when my father farmed, he never participated, so this is new territory. Is there a minimum amount of acres you have to have? I have 8 acres of wheat right now. It doesn't sound like much, but I'd like to get involved now so I have a little "practice" for when I have 100-200 acres.
I've been reading on the FSA website and they mention the years 2002-2007 (the 2002 Farm Bill) Is this where the 2008 Farm bill comes in? Is it even put in effect yet?
Do I just go to the local FSA office and just fill out some paperwork or do you have to be farming for a certian number of years.
If anyone would like to share their experiences with this program I'd be glad to hear it.
Sorry for all the questions, but I haven't found a website with all the answers I've been looking for on the web yet.
