Notify Local Boards Registrants Must
Registrants must supply local boards with evidence to support classification claims. Those farming or employed in agriculture can obtain farm production data from the County Agricultural Mobilization Committee chairmen or related organizations such as the Production Marketing Administration and County Agent. If employed outside the county, contact the chair of the local board’s county mobilization committee for required agricultural data. Farm registrants must be engaged in market production of key commodities and not replaceable due to skill shortages, with removal causing material loss of effectiveness.
