ARC/PLC Enrollment time is here!
Producers can now make their 2026 Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) elections and enroll with FSA.
Enrollment Period is:
- 2026 Crop Year: September 16 - December 11, 2026
Keep in mind that if you elected SCO for your 2026 Spring Crop you can elect either ARC or PLC moving forward.
If you are keeping your current program choice, you still need to contact your local FSA office to confirm that moving forward for the 2026 year, you are covered.
CHECK THE BASE ACRE NOTIFICATION:
FSA's new base acre allocations include a 3.69% pro-rated reduction to newly allocated acres because eligible acreage exceeded the nationwide cap. This adjustment applies to new allocations, not your existing base acres. Notifications are available online or through your local FSA Office.
**Reminder**
Cotton producers: enrolling seed cotton base acres in ARC or PLC makes planted Upland Cotton acres on that farm ineligible for STAX.
Please reach out to the office with any questions @ (806) 620-2949
