View Rule

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is proposing to delay the effective date of the "Poultry Grower Payment Systems and Capital Improvement Systems" final rule.  This final rule was originally published in the Federal Register on January 16, 2025, with an effective date of July 1, 2026.  AMS is proposing to postpone the effective date to December 31, 2027.  The purpose of this delay is to allow the Agency additional time for thorough consideration of the estimated costs, policy implications, and legal issues associated with the final rule, particularly considering Congressional direction and the significant estimated costs and unquantifiable benefits identified in the original analysis.
