Ada, MN — Farmers looking to make election changes or to enroll in the FSA ARC/PLC for the 2022 year have until March 15th to do so. Norman and Clay County FSA Director James Kruize shared more information about the deadlines and available resources for producers while on his monthly visit on the KRJB Kaleidoscope Program.

The ARC-CO program provides income support tied to historical base acres, not current production, of covered commodities. ARC-CO payments are issued when the actual county crop revenue of a covered commodity is less than the ARC-CO guarantee for the covered commodity.

PLC program payments are issued when the effective price of a covered commodity is less than the respective reference price for that commodity. The effective price equals the higher of the market year average price (MYA) or the national average loan rate for the covered commodity.
