Livestock producers who had to euthanize animals during the pandemic will receive payments based on 80% of the fair market value, according to new details of the Pandemic Livestock Indemnity Program unveiled on July 13 by Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. Eligible livestock and poultry include swine, chickens and turkeys, but pork producers are expected to be the primary recipients of the assistance.
