The federal government announced a $1 billion general agriculture payment this morning. Cattle producers will be eligible to receive about $305 million of that total. It will be distributed based on the same criteria used for last year’s Transitional Industry Support Program (TISP). Producers who participated in that program will not need to reapply and will automatically receive the payment. Producers who were eligible for the TISP program but did not apply can apply this program – forms will be available shortly.
We will send more information about the program when it is available.
Thanks,
