Webinar set for new Coronavirus Food Assistance Program

Join the U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency Sept. 24 at 3 p.m. EDT for a webinar as it introduces a new round of the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP 2).

Register here to participate. 

CFAP 2 provides direct support for producers who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic since April 2020. USDA listened to producer feedback during the first round of CFAP, and CFAP 2 has been adapted to better meet the needs of impacted farmers and ranchers of non-specialty and specialty crops, livestock, dairy, eggs, aquaculture, and nursery crops and cut flowers.

Learn about expanded eligibility for certain commodities, new payment categories including a sales-based approach to specialty crops and other specific commodities and information on how to apply.

Producers can apply for CFAP 2 between Sept. 21, 2020 through Dece. 11, 2020.

Producers can find more information here.
