FSA and UNL Host Webinar on ARC and PLC Crop Safety Net Enrollment
What happened
The Farm Service Agency and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Center for Agricultural Profitability are hosting a webinar on October 15 to educate commodity crop producers about the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) programs. Producers can enroll for the 2026 crop year until December 11, 2026, and for the 2027 crop year from November 2, 2026, through March 15, 2027. These USDA safety-net programs help producers manage fluctuations in revenue or price for certain crops.

Why it matters
ARC and PLC are key USDA safety-net programs that were extended through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act until 2031. These programs provide stability to producers, helping them weather price or revenue fluctuations for certain crops.
The Farm Service Agency is managing the enrollment and expansion of ARC and PLC programs, with support from Donald Trump and Rollins for farm safety nets.
