{"abstract":"The Farm Service Agency (FSA) published a notice on December 14, 2021, announcing the availability of $50 million for the Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program (SMHPP). This document clarifies hog eligibility, documentation requirements, and payment factoring. SMHPP assists producers who sold hogs through a spot market sale from April 16, 2020, through September 1, 2020, the period during which these producers faced the greatest reduction in market prices due to the COVID-19 pandemic. SMHPP excludes non-adult pigs or other swine that were not intended for slaughter. SMHPP also excludes hogs sold under contracts that had a premium or other formula outside a spot market sale. The eligibility requirements, payment calculation, and application procedure for SMHPP are included in this notice.","action":"Notification of funding availability.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE","name":"Agriculture Department","id":12,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/agriculture-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/12","parent_id":null,"slug":"agriculture-department"},{"raw_name":"Farm Service Agency","name":"Farm Service Agency","id":157,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/farm-service-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/157","parent_id":12,"slug":"farm-service-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2022/03/18/2022-05672.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"87 FR 15358","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Funding availability: Implementation will begin March 18, 2022.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket ID FSA-2021-0012"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2022-05672","effective_on":null,"end_page":15363,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2022/03/18/2022-05672.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/03/18/2022-05672/notice-of-funds-availability-spot-market-hog-pandemic-program-smhpp","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2022-05672?publication_date=2022-03-18","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2022-03-18/2022-05672/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":6,"page_views":{"count":1284,"last_updated":"2026-10-23 10:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2022-03-18/pdf/2022-05672.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2022-05672.pdf?1647521116","publication_date":"2022-03-18","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2022/03/18/2022-05672.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Funds Availability: Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program","document_id":"FSA-2021-0012-0010"},{"title":"Funds Availability: Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program","document_id":"FSA-2021-0012-0002"},{"title":"Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposals, Submissions, and Approvals: General Program Administration","document_id":"FSA-2021-0012-0001"}],"comments_count":0,"agency_id":"FSA","comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=FSA-2021-0012","supporting_documents_count":3,"docket_id":"FSA-2021-0012","document_id":"FSA-2021-0012-0010","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program (SMHPP)","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2022-03-23T03:30:04Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":15358,"subtype":null,"title":"Notice of Funds Availability; Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program (SMHPP)","toc_doc":"Spot Market Hog Pandemic Program","toc_subject":"Funds Availability:\n","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":87}
