You need to go to the FSA office soon and discuss. If it was uncropped sod or pasture land and if you were already in the program they need to be notified before tearing it up, don't know what is involved if not in the program. If you only have 8 acres now and sign up, then intend to break more sod, it might present some difficulties depending on your office. Most are easy to get along with. In the early 90's I cleared out some fence rows and starting farming some idle ground which had been pastured years ago. Went to the FSA office to add the additional acres to the neighboring field and the FSA wasn't real happy I didn't tell them before proceeding. Pleaded ignorance which was truly the case, but probably wouldn't try it again. Minimally you need to get a farm number and start building a history. Best to get this number before the new government program begins, because after it starts you can get a number and build a history, but I don't believe you can get any payments. In 1999 I bought a small farm some distance away which was being cropped but was not in the program. The tentant immediately got a farm number and although we didn't initially get any payments, a history was built which bore fruit (money) in the subsequent 2002 farm bill.
