Learn more at this link. Pre-filled applications were mailed to producers who submitted acreage reports to FSA for 2024 eligible ECAP commodities. These applications must be signed and returned to FSA. Visit the ECAP information page, under How To Apply, for other ways to apply for this assistance. The application window is open through Aug. 15, 2025.
* Nebraska FSA presented on FSA drought resources for livestock producers as part of a University of Nebraska-Extension webinar called Drought Prep Program for Cattle Producers. Folks can view the recording of this webinar at this link.
* Nebraska FSA County Offices are preparing for spring acreage certification. Farmers can help County Offices with this process by keeping track of what is planted, where it is planted, and when it is planted, as this information is critical for the completion of acreage certification paperwork. Please communicate with your County Office regarding their certification process for 2025.ECAP Application Period Open; Drought Resources Webinar Recording Available; Acreage Certification Begins
