The Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP) requires farmers to convert their 2019 crop production and unpriced crop inventories on hand on January 15, 2020 to dry grain equivalents. Additional UW tools and resources are available.
Farmers can follow these steps to complete the CFAP Payment Application:
- Determine which crops grown in 2019 are eligible for payments.
- Calculate 2019 production and eligible inventories on January 15, 2020.
- Convert each eligible grain/forage crop to it’s dry grain equivalent.
- Report dry grain equivalents to your local Farm Service Agency office by August 28, 2020.
