USDA announced on Friday a package of technology enhancements from the Farm Service Agency (FSA) that include Web access for handheld and smartphone users, as well as a more efficient and timely option for receiving news and critical program information.

The technology improvements will allow users of FSA information to gain access to easy-to-read data, including key features such as loan deficiency payment (LDP) rates, posted county prices (PCP), FSA news releases and AskFSA, the agency’s online self-help knowledge base.

To access FSA’s mobile website visit www.fsa.usda.gov/mobile.  To sign up for FSA’s GovDelivery electronic news service, visit www.fsa.usda.gov/subscribe.
