[Archived] Quality Loss Adjustment Program

More than $1 billion in payments will be released over the next several weeks starting June 15 for agricultural producers with approved applications for the Quality Loss Adjustment (QLA) Program and for producers who have already received payments through the Wildfire and Hurricane Indemnity Program Plus (WHIP+). These U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) programs provide disaster assistance to producers who suffered losses to 2018 and 2019 natural disasters. 

[This page has been archived.] Enrollment for the Quality Loss Adjustment (QLA) Program ended on April 9, 2021.

About the Quality Loss Adjustment Program

USDA’s Farm Service Agency accepted QLA applications from January 6 through April 9, 2021. To apply, producers must submit a completed program application along with supporting documentation.
