The Farm Service Agency’s (FSA) electronic Loan Deficiency Payment Service (eLDP) is an Internet-based service allowing producers to request LDPs online and, in most cases, receive approval and payment by direct deposit within 72 hours. eLDPs are available to eligible producers in all 50 States and are offered as an additional option to producers requesting an LDP.
The eLDP process is available 24/7, except during routine backup and maintenance periods. The applicable LDP Rate is based upon the rate in effect on the application date for the location of the stored commodity.
