Impact Report San Ildefonso Alfalfa Planting Assistance was provided in the fall of 2011 to the San Ildefonso Agricultural Program in the soil sample collection, selection of alfalfa variety seed, planting and irrigation. The five acre field is another crop that the program is looking at incorporating into their agricultural program. Unfortunately due to the dry fall season that was had along with the cold dry winter, they only got a very poor stand of alfalfa. Crop Disaster Assistance Workshop The Agent hosted and co-sponsored in August an FSA Disaster Assistance Information Workshop for Farmers and Ranchers who had experienced losses of crops and livestock due to the drought conditions that occurred throughout the course of the year. The workshop that was attended by 18 producers was well received. Those in attendance were grateful for the effort being put forth to organize the workshop.
