WHIP+ Program Gets More Funding to Continue Payments

Published December 22, 2020

With President Trump’s signature of the government funding bill, USDA will honor all 2018 and 2019 crop losses in the WHIP+ program and fund quality loss adjustments. For months, Northern Plains farmers have been waiting for their WHIP+ program payments or for an update on the remaining half of the 2019 payment. For the last month, WHIP+ program applications were stalled due to funding delays. This additional $1.5 billion for the WHIP+ program is from a reallocation of unused WHIP block grant funding and $1 billion in unspent funds from the first Coronavirus Food Assistance Program.
