Economic Injury Disaster Loan

Dear Members, 

Below is the link to the new round of Economic Injury Disaster Loan advance application:

https://covid19relief.sba.gov/#/

This is for a loan of up to $10,000 and is intended to provide economic relief specifically to agricultural businesses at this moment. This loan advance will not need to be repaid. 

Some general information:

• Agricultural businesses include those businesses engaged in the production of food and fiber, ranching, and raising of livestock, aquaculture, and all other farming and agricultural related industries (as defined by section 18(b) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 647(b)).
• SBA is encouraging all eligible agricultural businesses with 500 or fewer employees wishing to apply to begin preparing their business financial information needed for their application.
• For agricultural businesses that submitted an EIDL application through the streamlined application portal prior to the legislative change, SBA will process these applications without the need for re-applying
