Organic and Transitional Education and Certification Program (OTECP):
FSA has started accepting applications for OTECP, a new (likely temporary) program designed to help certified organic and transitional operations offset certain costs including eligible certification expenses, eligible transitional expenses, educational event registration fees, and soil testing for micronutrient deficiencies. The $20 million devoted to this program for fiscal years 2020, 2021, and 2022 is part of USDA’s Pandemic Assistance for Producers Initiative.
FSA will accept OTECP applications for fiscal years 2020 and 2021 from November 8, 2021 through January 7, 2022. The application period for fiscal year 2022 applications will be announced later.
