Specifically, the bill increases the reference prices for wheat, corn, soybeans, peanuts, and seed cotton.</p><p>The ARC and PLC programs, administered by the Farm Service Agency, offer financial assistance to eligible agricultural producers, and the reference prices are used to calculate benefits under the programs.
