USDA Coronavirus Food Assistance Program
CFAP will provide direct relief to producers who have suffered losses during the 2020 marketing year due to COVID-19. CFAP will provide
$16 billion in direct support
to agricultural producers impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
Beginning May 26, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), through the Farm Service Agency (FSA), will be accepting applications from agricultural producers who have suffered losses.
Livestock eligible for CFAP include cattle, lambs, yearlings and
hogs
. The total payment will be calculated using the sum of the producer's number of livestock sold between January 15 and April 15, 2020, multiplied by the payment rates per head, and the highest inventory number of livestock between April 16 and May 14, 2020, multiplied by the payment rate per head.
