Welcome to the New Mexico Farm Service Agency’s (FSA) website
Our primary mission is to help ensure the success of New Mexico’s farmers and ranchers through various programs and technical assistance. The work that FSA continues to accomplish day to day is important not only to the agricultural producers around the State but also to the rural communities that depend on the agricultural industry.
Over the last 5 years, FSA has distributed over $508 million in program benefits and loans to New Mexico’s agricultural producers. These investments in our State’s rural economy are delivered through a network of 24 county offices and 4 farm loan offices. These offices serve the State’s 33 counties and are staffed with hard-working, dedicated employees that continue the strong tradition of providing excellent customer service to our producers.
New Mexico FSA is proud to continue its strong tradition of providing customer-based service to New Mexico's producers.
