Summary
President Trump and the USDA announced an $8 billion relief program, called Harvest Fuel Relief, to help farmers offset high diesel costs during this harvest season through one-time payments. Farmers do not need crop insurance to qualify and can prepare by creating a Login.gov account. The program likely won't have an immediate impact.
