The Emergency Relief Program Phase Two covers shallow losses not accounted for under Phase One. North Dakota Farm Service Agency Executive Director Marcy Svenningsen says farmers should note that the second phase is being based off of revenue and not loss. Signup began January 23 and runs through June 2, 2023. “It’s kind of a shift from previous disaster programs in that we typically look at a single disaster or targeted commodity. This time, we’re looking at a revenue-based program”. Svenningsen doesn’t expect farmers to receive the same coverage as Phase One, because the first phase was so successful in North Dakota. North Dakota received almost $1.1 billion, making it the highest recipient of ERP Phase One payments in the nation.
