ARC, PLC Enrollment Open
The signup period for the Agriculture Risk Coverage and Price Loss Coverage programs for the 2021 crop year opened Oct. 13 and ends March 15, 2021.
These programs help producers weather fluctuations in either revenue or price for certain crops, and more than $5 billion in payments are in the process of going out to producers who signed up for the 2019 crop year.
“Although commodity prices are starting to show a glimmer of improvement, recent depressed prices and drops in revenue compounded by the effects of the pandemic have seriously impacted the bottom line for most agricultural operations,” said Richard Fordyce, Farm Service Agency administrator.
