In this episode, Hunter Biram walks through how the share of long grain rice base shapes a farm's average Price Loss Coverage (PLC) payment rate, drawing on the University of Arkansas PLC Payment Calculator to run the numbers. He explains why farms with roughly 500 base acres or fewer stay insulated from payment limits, while larger operations may face a whole farm average rate that falls short of recouping 2025's economic losses. 

With per-acre net returns for rice running deep in the red, producers should visit their local FSA office and update their farm operating plans for the 2026 crop year before September 15th.
