USDA is dedicated to reaching a broad set of producers and agricultural businesses through our Pandemic Assistance for Producers initiative. Visit this page frequently for the latest updates on this critical initiative.
Pandemic Assistance Revenue Program (PARP)
The Pandemic Assistance Revenue Program (PARP) will assist eligible producers of agricultural commodities who experienced revenue decreases in calendar year 2020 compared to 2018 or 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. PARP will help address gaps in previous pandemic assistance, which was targeted at price loss or lack of market access, rather than overall revenue losses. USDA's Farm Service Agency will accept PARP applications from January 23, 2023, through June 2, 2023. Additional information is available at farmers.gov/coronavirus/pandemic-assistance/parp.
