Farmers: If you’ve suffered production and income losses due to natural disasters in the last two years, this video has important information you should know! You may qualify for a payment through the Emergency Relief Program (ERP) Phase 2 program.
The deadline to apply for ERP Phase 2 is June 2, 2023.

Opportunities for support from USDA and FSA too often leave out farmers who need it the most. This information is needed to help farmers make an informed decision as to their eligibility and the application process. This also creates an opportunity for those who have not previously applied for funds a chance to gain access to future USDA and FSA funding opportunities!
