The Farm Service Agency (FSA) has opened an acreage reporting period for specialty crop producers for their share of $1 billion set aside for aid tied to 2025 crops. USDA also had a flurry of announcements Tuesday, such as launching a new ag-tech testing program and creating a portal for USDA documents.
"The scoreboard can't make you a loser. If you walk off the field with your head up, you don't lose. You don't hang your head for nobody. People in the stands . . . their opinion doesn't make a difference. The only opinion that makes any difference is your own opinion of yourself."
