Q: Government farm grants are given based on a wide range of relatively specific criteria. For example, many government farm grants are only provided to those farms that qualify as a “small farm.” A small farm is typically defined as those farms bringing in gross receipts of less than $250,000 annually. Some of the main types of government grants include:  Farm labor grants, which can be used to locate, hire and pay farm employees. New farmer grants, which are used to help those looking to start operating a new farm. Environmental quality incentive grants, which are provided to those farmers who agree to employ environmentally friendly farming processes in exchange for grant money. The website explains all of the different grant programs available and provides details on eligibility requirements and application procedures. Call your state Department of Agriculture or access their website for more information about farm grants provided by your local or state government. If you live in a rural or tribal location, you might be able to get grants from your regional government as well. Oftentimes additional grants are made on a needs basis when funding is available to help in the areas of pest management, water conservation, and energy. Check the USDA's website, or www.grants.gov for opportunities that are only available during specific years or for specific communities.
A: Understand the different types of farm grant options available. Use the USDA website to research federal farm grant opportunities. Explore grant opportunities in your state. Look for new and proposed funding opportunities.

Q: Remember that inner peace develops over time.  Fluctuations occur throughout the day. There will be moments that you feel more peaceful than others. Remember that you are a work in progress, and although you are always changing you are beautiful in every moment. Think only of what is at hand.  Think less about the past or future.  Today is different from the past. Being mindful of each moment can help you feel centered, calm, and peaceful. Try a guided meditation through a website or app, like Headspace or Calm. It is easy to allow negativity into your mind by expecting or fearing unknown situations. Let go of bias and expectation. Be open to experience.   Letting go of the need for control will help you feel peaceful with life's unpredictable circumstances. Take time to do the things that make you happy.  Satisfy your desires. Following your own path is the road to inner peace. Try reaching out and connecting to others. This can help you feel peaceful and content. You are who you are.  Take pride in your individuality. Accept yourself for who you are. Self-acceptance should be unconditional: you deserve to love yourself, strengths, weaknesses, and all. Find contentment in where you are, who you are and what you are doing. Accepting your life as it is and yourself as you are will help you to feel inner peace. Rectify your errors when possible.  Relieve your mind. Everyone makes mistakes. To feel peace, you should admit when you are wrong. Your worries will drive away inner peace; focus on the positive in life to remain peaceful and in control.
A: Be patient. Experience the current moment. Try not to prejudge. Be happy. Have pride. Be content. Take responsibility. Be optimistic.

Q: Once your rat is eliminating in the box consistently, keep it clean. Like cats, rats may stop using a dirty litter box. Once a day, dump out the litter box and put down a fresh layer of bedding. Some rat cages are very large and have multiple levels. If your rat has this kind of cage, it's unlikely to go up or down stairs when it needs to use the bathroom. Therefore, keep a litter box on each level of the cage. If you started litter training your rat when it was a baby, it will eventually grow out of its box. A litter box needs to be big enough that your rat can comfortably fit inside. As your rat grows, swap out the litter box as needed.
A:
Maintain a clean litter box. Use multiple litter boxes for a cage with many levels. Change the litter box size as needed.
