Meeting to provide FSA election info

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at the local office.

‘The meeting is being held to inform all eligible producers and landowners of the election procedures, purposes of the local County Committee, and to encourage greater participation in the county committee election process,’ said Steve Stubblefield, director of the local FSA office.

Each year, a candidate is elected to serve on the FSA Committee. The terms are staggered so that continuity remains in the committee.

‘I would like to invite all interested persons to come out and take part in the informational meeting,’ Stubblefield added.

‘The right to nominate, vote, and elect a representative from among our peers, is a privilege we all should be proud of and exercise the right to vote each and every opportunity we have to do so.’

The Farm Service Agency county office is located at 811 Faulkner Springs Rd., McMinnville.
