7 CFR 760.1607: Availability of funds and timing of payments.

On-Farm Stored Commodity Loss Program payments will be prorated, with all producers receiving payments based on the sum of all eligible payments and available funds. FSA will not disburse On-Farm Stored Commodity Loss Program payments at the beginning of the application period. During the application period, FSA may evaluate program demand and begin issuing payments if an initial payment factor can be established to ensure that payments do not exceed available funding. After the application deadline, a final payment factor will be determined and applied, which may or may not provide an additional or final payment, depending upon the factor.
