The N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services has launched a new Web site to provide information to pork and poultry farmers whose contracts with vertically integrated production companies have been cut or terminated because of economic conditions.

The Growers Assistance Information Network, or GAIN, contains listings of information and resources that could assist growers with financial planning, alternative markets and other topics relevant to their situation. The site includes contact information for resources at the NCDA&CS, U.S. Department of Agriculture, N.C. State University, N.C. A&T State University and other state agencies, plus some non-profit organizations. The site also offers a list of steps that growers can take if they find themselves without a contract.

GAIN is accessible at www.ncagr.gov/gain
