ANNOUNCEMENTS
Marketing Assistance for Specialty Crops
(MASC)
FSA has released a new program for specialty crops. MASC covers the following commercially marketed specialty crops grown in the US:
Fruits (fresh, dried);
Vegetables (including dry edible beans and peas, mushrooms, and vegetable seed);
Tree nuts;
Nursery crops, Christmas trees, and floriculture;
Culinary and medicinal herbs and spices; and
Honey, hops, maple sap, tea, turfgrass, and grass seed.
Important Dates
Sign up starts: Dec. 10, 2024
Deadline to apply: Jan. 8, 2025
FSA will issue MASC payments after the end of the application period. If demand for MASC payments exceeds available funding, MASC payments may be prorated, and the payment limitation of $125,000 may be lowered. If additional funding is available after MASC payments are issued, FSA may issue an additional payment.
For established specialty crop growers, those who certify crop sales in 2023 or 2024, FSA will calculate MASC payments based on the producer’s total specialty crop sales for the calendar year elected by the producer.
Payments for new producers will be based on their expected 2025 calendar year sales and must submit FSA-1141
