USDA to Form COVID-19 Assistance Program for Farmers & Ranchers

Holbrook & Manter is proud to serve clients in the agribusiness industry. We are pleased to see that aide is being sent to them during these trying times. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, Sonny Perdue, has announced the formation of the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP). This program is designed to assist farmers, ranchers and consumers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

At the direction of President Donald Trump, the USDA will utilize $19 billion in relief funds to provide support to farmers and ranchers with the goal to maintain the integrity of the food supply chain.

We invite you to visit the USDA website at the link below to learn more about this much needed program. If you have questions about how this program can assist your agribusiness, please reach out to us so we can be of assistance.
