The marketing assistance loan (MAL) and loan deficiency payment (LDP) provisions have been extended for the 2013 crop year. MALs and LDPs provide financing and marketing assistance for wheat, rice, feed grains, soybeans and other oilseeds, peanuts, pulse crops, cotton, honey and wool. MALs provide producers interim financing at or after harvest to help meet cash flow needs without having to sell commodities when market prices are typically at harvest-time lows. Learn more.
