USDA estimates federal farm support payments through PLC and ARC at $13.2 billion for crop year 2025, the largest single-year PLC figure in the 2014-2025 data. Payments were disbursed on October 1, and the figures are provisional USDA estimates.
Large support payments can keep farmers in production and reduce selling pressure, which is mildly bearish for grain prices over time. The effect is indirect and already reflected in the market.
