Texas – Commissioner Miller issued a statement welcoming the USDA’s announcement of payment rates for the Farmer Bridge Assistance Program.

“America’s farmers have endured a year of rising costs and unfair market disruption, and today’s announcement from USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins delivers real, timely relief,” Miller said. “The Farmer Bridge Assistance Program provides clear payment rates and fast assistance producers can count on as they plan for the 2026 growing season.

I applaud President Trump and Secretary Rollins for putting farmers first, restoring certainty to the farm economy, and strengthening the farm safety net. These bridge payments will help Texas producers stay afloat and continue feeding and clothing our nation.”

The USDA’s announcement provides guidance for farmers to receive support as they prepare for the upcoming growing season
