Abstract: This white paper provides preliminary estimates of the economic assistance payments allocated to North Dakota crop producers under the American Relief Act of 2025. The legislation, enacted on December 20, 2024, authorizes $10 billion in federal support for U.S. crop producers and extends the 2018 Farm Bill through September 2025. Using national data on projected prices, yields, and production costs, the study calculates per-acre assistance rates and applies them to county-level planted and prevented planted acreage reported by the USDA Farm Service Agency. Results show that total projected payments to North Dakota producers reach $597 million, with soybeans, wheat, and corn accounting for over 95% of aid. The analysis highlights variation in assistance across counties and commodities, shaped by crop-specific economic losses and program formulas.
