What is the payment rate for each commodity?

The 2019 MFP program did not make payments on a commodity basis like the 2018 program. Therefore there is no difference in payment rate between a planted acre of corn and a planted acre of beans or wheat. A farmer with 25 acres of soybeans and 75 acers of corn will have the same payment as a farmer with 35 acres of corn and 65 acres of soybeans because they both have 100 acres of eligible planted commodities.

For Dairy- the payment is $0.20/ hundredweight of Dairy Margin Coverage Registered Milk.

For Pork- the payment is $11/ hear of the number of hogs on the operation for a day selected by the producer between April 1 and May 15, 2019.
