Scherrie V. Giamanco, state executive director of the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) in Illinois announced the state’s FSA office will be issuing 2012 Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and Direct and Countercyclical Program (DCP) payments throughout October.

“FSA will issue the payments in a timely manner as long as all producer eligibility requirements are met,” Giamanco said. FSA Chief Program Specialist Don King said eligible producers should receive payments by month’s end, and urged those who don’t or who have additional questions to contact their county FSA office.

CRP and DCP payments could be affected if producers have not submitted required Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) forms. In addition, farmers who signed up for CRP emergency haying and grazing and did not pay in advance will notice that their annual rental payment was reduced by the acreage that was hayed or grazed.

“Producers who were affected by county office consolidations will not experience payment delays,” Giamanco stressed. “All county office payments, regardless of consolidations, will be generated at the same time as long as all other eligibility requirements are met.”
