The Trump administration announced $8 billion in aid for farmers to help offset rising fuel costs, a major burden for growers during the harvest. The move is the administration’s latest attempt to ease financial burdens on growers — traditionally a strong Republican voting base — ahead of midterm elections. The White House earlier this month also eased limits restricting the use of a tax-exempt variety of diesel. The Harvest Fuel Relief program will “provide relief during temporary market disruptions and increased input costs,” the US Department of Agriculture said in a statement late Monday. The one-time payments will cover a portion of modeled losses for farmers during the 2026 crop year, according to the agency.
