Microloans from the Farm Service Agency: What's the deal?

In Jan. 2013 the Farm Service Agency announced a new program to provide low-interest loans of up to $35,000 to farmers. In response to the tremendous interest in this new offering, the Cornell Small Farms Program held a webinar on April 10 with Carrie Novak of the FSA to explain the details and answer questions. Stream the recording.  (You're computer will download the appropriate software enabling you to hear and watch this archived webinar.)  So many great questions were asked during the webinar that Carrie summarized these into a Q&A document available for download as a PDF here.
