USDA uth
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture
Sonny Perdue has authorized emer-
gency grazing on Conservation Re-
serve Program (CRP) lands in
Montana, North Dakota and South
Dakota.
All or parts of these states are ex-
periencing severe or extreme drought
conditions.
"Due to reduced availability of
forage, ranchers in the hardest hit lo-
cations have already been culling
their herds," said Perdue. "Without
alternative forage options like graz-
ing CRP lands, livestock producers
are faced with the economically dev-
astating potential of herd liquida-
tion."
CRP is a voluntary program ad-
ministered by USDA's Farm Service
Agency (FSA) available to agricul-
tural producers to help them safe-
guard environmentally sensitive land
and, when needed, provide emer-
gency relief to livestock producers
suffering the impacts of certain natu-
ral disasters.
Emergency grazing is authorized
to begin immediately and extends
through Sept. 30, unless conditions

Independence Day...
A Day
On June 11, 1 776, the Continental Congress appointed afire man committee including
Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Roger Sherman, Benjamin Franklin and Robert
Livingston, to draft a formal statement justifying the break with Great Britain. That
