Controlling Nuisance Black Vultures in Missouri
The Missouri Department of Agriculture has partnered with USDA-APHIS and MU Extension to help livestock producers control black vultures in Missouri. They have created an awareness campaign, including radio advertising on more than 130 stations and print advertisements in six different monthly agriculture magazines. Each of the ads encourages people to visit the webpage at Agriculture.Mo.Gov/blackvultures for more information.

Join us for the People’s Garden webinar series!
The People’s Garden webinar series will feature experts from USDA and beyond who will share planting tips and resources that benefit community gardens.

Avoid Scams Related to USDA Financial Assistance for Farmers Facing Discrimination
Section 22007 of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provides $2.2 billion in financial assistance for farmers, ranchers, and forest landowners who experienced discrimination in USDA’s farm lending programs prior to January 1, 2021.

USDA is aware of some lawyers and groups spreading misleading information about this process, pressuring people to sign retainer agreements, and asking people to fill out forms with private and sensitive information. Note that application forms for this program are not yet available and the application filing period has not started.
You can get up-to-date information about this program at farmers.gov/22007, a USDA website.
