AgriStability
AgriStability provides support when you experience a large margin decline. You may be able to receive an AgriStability payment when your current year program margin falls below 85% of your reference margin.
AgriStability is based on margins:
Program margin - your allowable income minus your allowable expenses in a given year, with adjustments for changes in receivables, payables and inventory. These adjustments are made based on information you submit on the AgriStability harmonized form.
Reference margin - your average program margin for three of the past five years (the lowest and highest margins are dropped from the calculation).
Should your production margin fall below 85% of your reference margin in a given year, you will receive a program payment.
