Farmers will learn more about the new Farm Bill at informational meetings planned for next month. Two meetings are scheduled for December at the DeKalb County Farm Bureau Center for Agriculture. The dates are Wednesday, Dec. 17 at 2 p.m. and Thursday, Dec. 18 at 6 p.m.
Sponsored by the USDA, speakers will include Janeen Vogeler, Farm Service Agency County Executive Director, and Russ Higgins, University of Illinois Extension Educator, Crop Sciences.
There will be additional meetings scheduled at a later date. Vogeler suggests farmers try to attend one of these meetings so that they can start making decisions for their farm.
