Early Certification
Benefits Producers
Producers have to certify their compliance under the 1971 setaside farm programs. Deadline for certification in Rappahannock County is June 30, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee.
In most cases, it will be to a producer’s advantage to certify his program acres as early as possible, he said. However, he emphasized that early certification is optional, and that a producer may certify at any time through June 30.
A producer must Complete his certification before he can receive any set-aside payment.
To certify, a producer signs a statement at the County ASCS
