We hope you’ll join us in praying for the first responders, volunteer firefighters, communities, and producers who are working tirelessly to fight the devastating wildfires impacting Nebraska. Team NC is working to coordinate and gather resources for producers. If you have any information regarding donation sites, community relief efforts, and other ways to help, please email disasterrelief@necattlemen.org. The NC Disaster Relief Fund will begin accepting donations on Monday. If you are a livestock producer who has suffered excessive livestock death losses and grazing or feed losses due to recent wildfires, you may be eligible for USDA-FSA disaster assistance programs. That said, documentation and record keeping is crucial during this time. You should record all pertinent information regarding livestock losses due to the eligible adverse weather or loss condition, including: - Documentation of the number, kind, type, and weight range of livestock that have died, supplemented if possible by photographs or video records of ownership and losses; - Rendering truck receipts by kind, type and weight - important to document prior to disposal; - Beginning inventory supported by birth recordings or purchase receipts; - Documentation from Animal Plant Health Inspection Service, Department of Natural Resources, or other sources to substantiate eligible death losses due to an eligible loss condition; - Documentation that livestock were removed from grazing pastures due to an eligible adverse weather or loss condition; - Costs of transporting livestock feed to eligible livestock, such as receipts for equipment rental fees for hay lifts; - Feed purchase receipts if feed supplies or grazing pastures are destroyed; - Number of gallons of water transported to livestock due to water shortages. For more information on these programs and documentation requirements, contact your County USDA Service Center or visit fsa.usda.gov/disaster.

As we fight the largest wildfires in our history, please continue to pray for the heroes across our state fighting to put them out — and the many Nebraskans affected by this disaster. Please pray for Nebraska. 🇺🇸 #NebraskaStrong
