There is likely to be a third tranche of Market Facilitation Program payments in January 2020. “We’re working with the Farm Service Agency to make sure they get the third and final payment out in a timely manner,” said North Dakota Senator John Hoven. According to North Dakota Farm Service Agency State Executive Director Brad Thykeson, 75 percent of MFP 2.0 is paid out. “If we finish this deal on MFP 2.0, we’d be at $714 million we’ve put into (North Dakota) producer’s hands in 2019. That’s almost double the first MFP go around. Those are big dollars that have to do with the trade tariffs.”
