Title: ●Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) 
Abstract: The 2008 Farm Bill implements a permanent Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) utilizing funds from the Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund (Trust Fund) for livestock losses incurred on or before September 30, 2011. The interim rule will implement the provisions of the 2008 Farm Bill for LIP payments to eligible livestock producers on farms that have incurred livestock death losses in excess of normal mortality rates during the calendar year due to adverse weather, as determined by the Secretary, including losses due to hurricanes, floods, blizzards, disease, wildfires, extreme heat, and extreme cold. LIP payments will be issued based on 75 percent of the fair market value of the livestock on the day before the date of death of the livestock as determined by the Secretary. These payments will be made based on individual producersÂ’ losses. No State, county, or other trigger will be used to define an eligible LIP area.
