FSA election winners announced in Haywood

William “Danny” Hyatt of Waynesville has been elected to represent his local administrative area during the Farm Service Agency’s recent county committee election. 

Linda Boyd, also of Waynesville, will serve as the first alternate. 

“County Committee members are a critical component of the day-to-day operations of FSA,” said Paula Edwards, county executive director. “They help deliver programs at the county level and work to serve the needs of local producers.”

Newly elected members will take office in January 2020 and join the existing committee. Every FSA office is served by a county committee made up of local farmers, rangers and foresters who are elected by local producers. Nearly 7,800 people serve on FSA committees nationwide. Members serve three-year terms.
