Market Facilitation Program

Department Of Agriculture, Farm Service Agency

MFP provides assistance to producers with commodities that have been significantly impacted by actions of foreign governments resulting in the loss of traditional exports. The imposition of tariffs by other countries on U.S. agricultural products, among other actions, are disrupting marketing of agricultural commodities and are outside of the control of the agricultural producers who are being negatively impacted.

Jargon-free version

Helps producers manage surplus crops and expand markets affected by foreign government actions. Provides payments to support these efforts.

What Is This Program?

The MFP payments will aid producers in the disposition of surplus commodities and aid in the expansion of domestic markets or aid in the development of new and additional markets and uses for the specific crops or commodities that are negatively impacted by actions of foreign governments. The determination of commodities that are included in MFP and specific program requirements applicable to the commodities, such as enrollment periods, will be announced in the applicable NOFAs published in the Federal Register. The Farm Service Agency (FSA) will administer MFP on behalf of CCC.
