This rule revises the regulations of the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program (ELAP), the Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP), the Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP), the Tree Assistance Program (TAP), the Marketing Assistance Loan (MAL) and Loan Deficiency Payments (LDP) Programs, and the Sugar Program to conform with provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Changes to the supplemental disaster assistance programs include ELAP assistance for losses due to bird depredation and a change to honeybee colony loss normal mortality; a lower drought threshold for LFP eligibility; LIP assistance for unborn death losses and changes to compensation for predation losses and the market values used in the LIP payment calculations; and changes to the TAP eligibility threshold and reimbursement percentage for certain costs. This rule increases the MAL and LDP loan rates for all eligible commodities for the 2026 through 2031 crop years as specified by OBBBA. Additional MAL and LDP changes for upland and extra-long staple (ELS) cotton required by OBBBA include revised formulas to calculate the prevailing world market price for upland cotton, the introduction of a prevailing world market price and adjusted world price for ELS cotton, and changes to the payment of cotton storage costs by area. Additionally, FSA is amending regulations to add provisions for a 30- day post-repayment loan review in which a refund for upland cotton repayment or an additional LDP disbursement could occur. Sugar Program changes are related to effective loan rates, storage rates, and sugar marketing allocation provisions. This rule also makes minor administrative changes to the Sugar Program regulations. Technical amendments are included for grains and similarly handled commodities, and honey. This rule also makes additional changes to the regulations for those programs to update eligibility and payment provisions, clarify program requirements, and improve program integrity. This rule also updates the Feedstock Flexibility Program (FFP) provisions to indicate that 2026 is the final crop year covered by the program, and makes corrections to the regulations for the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) Programs and Dairy Margin Coverage (DMC) Program.
Today, the Honourable Heath MacDonald, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, announced an investment of over $4 million for two beef and cattle organizations through the AgriMarketing Program, an initiative under the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership (Sustainable CAP).
미국 캘리포니아주 히크먼의 한 낙농장. 3대째 목장을 운영하는 앤서니 아게다 씨는 검게 젖은 나무 조각 더미를 갈퀴로 헤친 뒤 손으로 흙을 뒤집었다. 그 안에서는 수많은 붉은 지렁이들이 꿈틀거리고 있었다. 축구장 6개 규모에 달하는 이 거대한 지렁이 서식지는 단순한 퇴비장이 아니다. 젖소 수백 마리가 매일 배출하는 분뇨를 정화해 메탄과 아산화질소 배출을 줄이고 수질오염까지 낮추는 '바이오필터'다.기술 전문 매체인 MIT 테크놀로지 리뷰에 따르면 최근 이처럼 지렁이를 활용한 가축분뇨 처리 기술이 축산업의 새로운 탄소감축 해법으로 주목
Today, the European Commission adopted the Livestock Strategy to ensure Europe's valuable livestock sector remains strong and resilient in the long term.
Ten years after its adoption, the European Commission has published an evaluation of the EU Animal Health Law. The evaluation and accompanying report highlight the positive impact that the legislation has had in tackling animal diseases, while also presenting areas for improvement.
Supporting innovation in animal health is central to Canada’s efforts to ensure the long-term sustainability and resiliency of our food system. Research into alternatives to antibiotics helps the poultry sector adapt to evolving challenges, promote food safety, and strengthen consumer confidence.
