 <description>&lt;p&gt;Local farmers should begin planning now if they hope to capitalize on new livestock investment grants that will be awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. Funds are limited and applications will be accepted beginning in August.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The grants are the culmination of work state Rep. Dean Urdahl, R-Grove City, began five years ago. The Legislature enacted the grants during the 2008 session and farmers may be eligible to receive up to 10 percent of the first $500,000 of qualifying expenditures; a minimum $4,000 in expenditures must be made.&lt;/p&gt;
