Due to remodeling at the Henderson County Cooperative Extension Service, our front entrace is temporarily closed.  You may enter through the back middle glass door -- there is a hot pink sign which says "FRONT OFFICE".  Also, should you call us and not get anyone to answer, please bear with us as we are also upgrading our phone and internet services and may sporadically have outages.  Thank you for your patience!

All landowners and producers need to be made aware of certain deadlines and other information regarding the 2014 Farm Bill. Click HERE for full information

• Producers should update yields regardless of what program they elect to go into. This is a onetime option that has not been offered since 1985. This yield could be used for future Farm Bill programs.
• Producers should contact their local FSA office to make an appointment to complete all steps of ARCPLC prior to the enrollment deadline.

Updating yields should be started as soon as possible even though at this time you may not know which program in which you will participate.
