Special Webinar on Ag Economic Aid and Disaster Assistance
We are providing a webinar on the aid provided by the Continuing Resolution passed by Congress last Friday.
We finally got the Continuing Resolution passed by Congress on Friday, December 20, 2024.
As we blogged on many times last week, there is about $10 billion of Ag economic assistance for Title I crops and another $20 plus billion of disaster aid for farmers in the Bill.
There is no economic aid for non-Title I crops, but there was $2 billion of economic aid for specialty crops announced a week or two ago plus certain Senators are asking USDA to enhance this by another billion of aid. We shall see on that.
We are providing this webinar for both paid and non-paid subscribers since we believe it is important for all to understand how it will work, etc. Part of this is still to be implemented by USDA so final numbers may change a bit and how it will work may be different than past disaster aid programs.
Here is the webinar:
