Extending the ARC Farm Subsidy into 2031 & Increasing the Minimum Payout

The Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC) program provides payments when the actual revenue for a farm is less than a guarantee set based on historical data and market conditions.

Section 10305 of the Big Beautiful Bill extends the ARC subsidy program into 2031 for Farmers that experience a loss. It also increases the payout by 4% and one of the rate values by 2%.
