    Will these numbers be used by the USDA for deciding Maple Tap Act monies in the Farm Bill?

    I was told by our states Dept. of Ag, that money is released weekly. Always different parts of the Farm Bill. They felt sure that Money allocated to the Maple Tap Act will be announced soon. I was told that at a Assoc. meeting on May 3rd. Apparently nothing has happened. Maybe none will never be released?
