As a Kansan working in agriculture, you may experience elevated stress as you work hard to produce quality products, sustain your operation, and support your family.  

Agriculture workers, employees, and the family often work day and night and cannot always avoid stressful and overwhelming situations, especially during a pandemic, drought, fluctuations in market prices, and other situations that are out of their control. Caring for your own health and wellness in your high-stress profession is often overlooked but is just as critical as caring for your operation.

The 2018 Farm Bill allows a new farm program decision between Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC) or Price Loss Coverage (PLC) by March 15, 2022, and each year thereafter until 2023. Higher commodity prices are causing many farmers who have collected PLC payments in the past to now give consideration to ARC.
