Over 10,000 farms have applied for relief through the WI Farm Support program

Secretary-designee for the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection said over 10,000 farms have applied to the WI Farm Support program, which opened up for applications last week.

Farms who made $35,000 to $5 million in gross income based on 2019 tax returns are eligible to apply for $1,000 to $3,500 in one-time payments, based on an income-driven sliding scale.

Applications are open until 11:59 pm Monday, June 29. The application can be found by going to the Department of Revenue`s website, or if you need assistance filling the application, you can call 608-266-2772. Spanish and Hmong speakers can also call that number for assistance...
