[00:00:22.150]When you're driving down the road and
[00:00:24.040]you turn up the radio just to listen to
[00:00:26.010]something you hear us.
[00:00:27.990]Alex Vochoskie reporting for the... opps
[00:00:30.020]I'm gonna drop that down Alex Vochoskie
[00:00:31.970]reporting for the rural radio network.
[00:00:33.820]market information it's weather
[00:00:35.340]information. It's the latest in trade.
[00:00:37.350]It's the latest in research. CA's Farm
[00:00:39.230]Service Agency announced that sign up
[00:00:41.030]for the Conservation Reserve Program
[00:00:42.830]will begin today. The signup period ends
[00:00:44.900]on February 28th. For general CRP while
[00:00:47.020]the sign up for continuous CRP is
[00:00:48.660]ongoing
[00:00:49.370]Farmers & Ranchers who enrollment in CRP
[00:00:51.305]getting another payment for voluntarily
[00:00:53.350]establishing long term
[00:00:54.780]conserving plant species like approved
[00:00:57.430]grasses or trees that help control
[00:00:59.130]erosion. I've kind of taken on this role
[00:01:01.080]of a digital creator alongside of my
[00:01:02.812]supervisor. What we're trying to
[00:01:05.510]do is figure out where Farm broadcasting
[00:01:08.050]and where our network fits in on social
[00:01:10.350]media on websites and on different
[00:01:13.300]digital platforms
[00:01:18.380]What we're doing is relaying information
[00:01:20.790]that affects producers bottom line. Okay,
[00:01:24.860]the CRP currently has 22 million acres
[00:01:27.549]enrolled in the program. However the 2018
[00:01:29.680]farm bill lifts the cap on acres up to
[00:01:31.960]27 million. That means many farmers and
[00:01:34.560]ranchers will have the chance to enroll
[00:01:36.510]for the first time or continue their
[00:01:38.304]participation
[00:01:44.020]Journalism is constantly being
[00:01:46.770]criticized by consumers everywhere and
[00:01:49.170]so what we have to do is earn their
[00:01:51.456]trust and that's done by creating
[00:01:54.670]unbiased content.
[00:02:14.349]The most rewarding part about being a
[00:02:17.460]farm broadcaster is this idea that these
[00:02:19.810]producers are working 365 days a year
[00:02:22.450]right. They don't get a day off and they
[00:02:25.960]trust us for their information.
[00:02:36.319]But all these producers worked so hard
[00:02:39.039]to produce the nation's food, feed, fiber
[00:02:41.680]and fuel. They're trusting me.
[00:02:55.680]Broadcasting from the Nebraska soybean
[00:02:57.750]board news desks which is brought to you
[00:02:59.750]in part by Nebraska's soybean farmers
[00:03:01.589]and their checkoff I am Alex Vochoskie
