What does that stand for? \u00a0A lot of goat people probably don’t know what this acronym stands for. \u00a0It is Coronavirus Food Act Program that is administered through the Farm Service Agency. \u00a0Livestock producers can go to their FSA office, pick up a form and fill out the # of head of livestock. \u00a0The government then sends the producer some $s. \u00a0This program is good for cattle, sheep and hogs. \u00a0Wait! \u00a0What? \u00a0No goats.<\/p>\n
No. \u00a0Goats are NOT included in this program. \u00a0 GoatLivesMatterToo. \u00a0With all of the bitching & whining going on in the world, you would think that agriculture and government would be cognizant of their blatant racism and lack of inclusiveness for the goat sector. \u00a0I guess I should start a riot. \u00a0Maybe we need to go to San Angelo and tear down that sheep statue, even though that sheep doesn’t have anything to do with it. \u00a0Maybe we need to protest the United States Naval Academy for their use of Bill the Goat as their team mascot. \u00a0Let’s force the Hartford Yard Goats to change their name and logo.<\/p>\n
I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. \u00a0I’m going to let common sense prevail. \u00a0I’ve got a job and things to do, so I’m going to work. \u00a0I don’t have time to protest. \u00a0I am just going to let the county FSA office know about it and I would recommend all of you goat producers do the same. \u00a0Just make a smart ass remark about goat lives matter. \u00a0Maybe word will get passed up the food chain and they will add goats to the program. \u00a0Maybe not. \u00a0Either way, we are free to produce goats or not. \u00a0Our choice. \u00a0There is no oppression holding us back.<\/p>\n
I just pray that the rest of our nation will pull their heads out, listen to some common sense and find real solutions to problems.<\/p>\n
Have a good one and a better tomorrow. \u00a0Be safe on this holiday but dang sure have some fun. \u00a0I will.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
