USDA is moving ahead with an $8 billion package of one-time payments to help producers offset elevated diesel prices and other input costs for the 2026 crop year. The Farm Service Agency will administer the program, using a formula based on planted acreage, production-cost estimates, and yield and price data; payment rates for covered crops are expected later this month.
