Peanut Marketing Assistance Loans and Loan Deficiency Payments

 
Overview

 

 
The Food Conservation and Energy Act of 2008 (2008 Act) provides loans for crop years 2008 through 2012 for peanut producers. Producers may apply for marketing assistance loans for farm- or warehouse-stored peanuts or for peanut loan deficiency payments (LDPs). These programs help to stabilize America?s peanut industry and ensure the well being of agriculture in the United States.
