Eligible producers can receive up to $250,000 interest-free in the 2025 Program Year, with an additional $750,000 available at the Prime Interest Rate, for a total of $1,000,000. The production period for each agricultural product is determined based on its growing, harvesting/finishing and marketing cycle.
