What prove will be needed to prove that you had losses from the virus.
There is no way to prove that you had a 5% loss. You might have gotten more than it was worth. There is no baseline because of the difference in cattle value.VaCowman said:My interpretation is this...
The bull and cow should qualify for payment if you got 5% loss in pricing due to COVID. I'm not sure how that will be calculated (local pricing or national avg) but you will need your receipt. According to the CFAP website, if they meet the requirements, the payment rate is $92/head. Anything sold between mid January and mid April are eligible for signup.
In regards to the inventory portion, your highest inventory of qualifying livestock between April 16 and May 14 are eligible for payment of $33/head. I'm not sure if pairs count as one, or if they count as 2. I haven't seen that spelled out anywhere.
Again, this is MY interpretation of the wording on the CFAP webpage at farmers.gov. To be sure, you probably need to contact your local FSA office to get clarification. Pretty sure official sign ups are next Tuesday. The FSA offices are only allowing folks with appointments to come into the buildings, so you'll probably have to call and set up an appointment to actually go in and sign up. There will probably be an online signup, but not 100% on that. I also do not know what will "pass" in regards to records or proof. Again, a good question for your FSA folks!
