The Apple Market Loss Assistance Program is a program of the Farm Service Agency that has made payments to apple producers to partially offset revenue losses from low prices caused by the loss of markets.

Funding

  • The 2002 farm bill (P.L. 107-171, Sec. 10105) mandated the payment of $94 million by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) for lost markets in crop year 2000.
  • Earlier funding was mandated for the 2000 crop of apples by P.L. 107-76, Sec. 741 ($75 million), and for the 1998 and 1999 apple crops by P.L. 106-387, Sec. 811 ($100 million).
