FSA Outreach?
Was at the agriculture.com website the other day, reading comments on the extension of the time to allocate base/update yields. Saw one comment, part of which I was almost able to answer (possible combination of two farms--a recon). Got me to wondering--if any government agencies are active on such sites. In this case, an authoritative comment could have resolved a problem, educated some people, and enhanced the image of the FSA bureaucracy. On the other hand, finding someone who could be authoritative on a number of different issues would be difficult and there would be the continual temptation to be either defensive or engage too much.
