Some crops meet
program rules
FARGO - Four North Dakota
commodities have met the 2009
state revenue trigger for the
Average Crop Revenue Election
(ACRE) Program.
The 2009 actual state revenue
for barley, oats and dry peas has
fallen below the ACRE guarantee,
which meets one of two criteria for
payments to participating farms.
Participants in the program who
planted or were prevented from
planting barley, oats, corn or dry
peas in the 2009 crop year may now
be eligible for payments if their
actual farm revenue for the 2009
program year falls below the farm
ACRE guarantee.
The 2009 wheat and soybean
crops did not meet the state revenue
trigger. The 2009 minor oilseed
crop state triggers will be deter-
mined in December.
The per acre payment rates,
before the payment or farm produc-
tivity factors are applied are: bar-
ley-$19.76/acre; oats-$8.30/acre;
dry peas-$6.01/acre; and corn-
$26.64/acre.
Program participants who grew
one or more of the triggered crops
and have questions about their farm
trigger being met for each of the
applicable crops should contact
their local Farm Service Agency
office for more details.

Risk of identity theft
grows in high-tech world
very easy for someone to steal their
identity online, as all someone
needs is your name, date of birth,
and a few other pieces of informa-
tion that are usually readily avail-
able on your social media account,
and they're well on their way.
Another reason that the thieves
love gaining access to your person-
al information through social media
sites is that it's perfectly legal.
Often doing a simple Internet
search using a person's name pulls
~up their Facebook account, and that
can be Pandora's Box for the crook.
What happens next? A recent
£survey by Consumer Reports
revealed that fifty-tw0 percent of
Even though computers and the
Internet have changed our world,
consumers need to be reminded
that not everyone they come in
contact with online is trustwor-
thy.
The growth of social network-
ing sites is undeniable, with the
most popular being Facebook with
over 400 million users world-
wide. Forty percent of Facebook
users are people under the age of
25.
There are many benefits to
signing up for sites like
Facebook. Social media sites
allow you to do the obvious things
such as keep in touch with your
family and friends, or even find a
new job. As much fun as this can
be, users need to be aware of the
potential risks associated with
being too forthcoming on a public
site.

tified consumer credit counselor
at The Village Family Service
Center. "Even listing daily activi-

other words, if you're too reveal-

Consumers unwittingly make it
what's off-limits. Realize that
information a youngster innocent-
ly provides on a social networking
site can compromise the entire
family.
- Be selective when you allow
access to your site. Keeping your
circle small, including only those
,that you personally .know can
safeguard you.
- Look at everything you post
through the eyes of the crook. See
if you could piece together who
you are and where you live. Even
clever screen names can often be
decoded by a thief.

Financial counselors at The

- Make sure everyone in the
