Title: 2002 Farm Bill Regulations--Assistance for Livestock Producers 
Abstract: The Secretary may provide assistance to dairy and other livestock producers to cover economic losses incurred by such producers in connection with the production of livestock. The assistance may be: (1) indemnity payments to livestock producers who incur livestock mortality losses; (2) livestock feed assistance to livestock producers affected by shortages of feed; (3) compensation for sudden increases in production costs; and (4) such other assistance, and for such other economic losses, as the Secretary considers appropriate. Appropriations are necessary before this program can be implemented. The legislation provides that funding will be appropriated "as may be necessary to carry out" the program. For comparison, outlays in FY 2001 for the Livestock Assistance, Pasture Recovery, American Indian Livestock Feed, and Livestock Indemnity Programs totaled $480 million.
