Producers are reminded to keep updated livestock inventory records. These records are necessary in the event of a natural disaster. Recent drought disaster declarations may allow producers to become eligible for assistance through a variety of programs.
When disasters strike, the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) can assist producers who suffered excessive livestock death losses and grazing or feed losses due to eligible natural disasters.

The IRS is coming – eventually – for the money in your 401(K) or Traditional IRA.
