Farmers and producers who have been affected financially by COVID-19 can now apply for assistance. The Coronavirus Food Assistance Program, which was part of the CARES Act, helps to make funds available to farmers and producers who saw their crops, livestock, and other products take a hit financially as COVID-19 began to spread within the U.S. Applications can be made by contacting local farm service agencies. The program is open for applications until August 28th.
