Recently released USDA data and projections allow us to make some fairly good guesses about the per acre payments which farmers will be eligible for in fall of 2015 under the County Agricultural Risk Coverage program (ARC-CO for short).
Estimated payments by commodity and county in Maryland is available on the publication Estimated Payments Under the 2014 County Agricultural Risk Coverage Program in Maryland by Howard Leathers and Paul Goeringer with the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics.
