特朗普总统表示，其政府将向受创纪录柴油价格冲击的农民提供80亿美元援助。
“今晚我还高兴地宣布，美国农业部将启动一项新的‘收获燃料救助计划’，在本收获季向我们的农民提供80亿美元支持，以抵消柴油成本，”特朗普周一晚间在堪萨斯州的一场集会上表示。
“当共和党获胜时，我们将为农民争取更多拨款。我们热爱我们的农民，”他补充道。
本月早些时候，特朗普还签署了一项行政命令，放宽对染色免税柴油使用的限制，此举旨在降低农民和卡车司机的成本。这一举措是在特朗普政府去年12月宣布向农民提供120亿美元一揽子援助计划之后推出的。
农民们面临着柴油价格飞涨带来的财务压力，而柴油是农用机械的动力来源。根据美国汽车协会（AAA）的数据，柴油价格在9月22日达到每加仑6.53美元的纪录高点，不过此后略有回落，目前美国平均价格为每加仑6.32美元，高于一年前的3.62美元。
“这笔80亿美元的投资将帮助我们的农民在本收获季获得稳定预期，使他们能够继续为国家提供粮食，”美国农业部部长布鲁克·罗林斯在一份声明中表示。
美国农业部表示，这项名为“收获燃料救助计划”的方案将通过标准公式，向农民支付2026作物年度部分预计损失的补贴。计算将依据向农场服务局报告的种植面积、估计的生产成本，以及美国农业部《世界农业供给与需求评估报告》中的作物产量和价格数据。

该机构表示，将在11月公布主要大宗商品作物的补贴标准，其他符合条件的产品细则将随后公布。农民无需农作物保险即可申请资格，并可通过创建与美国农业部关联的Login.gov账户提前准备申请。
美国农业部估计，今年农场净收入将下降2.6%，而生产成本将上涨4.5%。根据该机构9月的预测，仅燃油和油料支出预计就将飙升近30%。

Trump pledges $8 billion in relief for farmers struggling with soaring diesel prices

President Trump said his administration will provide $8 billion in aid to farmers hurt by record diesel prices.
“Tonight I’m also pleased to announce that the Department of Agriculture will be launching a new Harvest Fuel Relief program, providing our farmers with $8 billion in support to offset diesel costs during this harvest season,” Mr. Trump said at a rally in Kansas Monday night.
“When Republicans win, we will pass even more funding for our farmers. We love our farmers,” he added.
Earlier this month, Mr. Trump also signed an executive order to ease limits on the tax-free use of red-dyed diesel, a move aimed at lowering costs for farmers and truckers. That came after a $12 billion aid package for farmers announced by the Trump administration in December.
Farmers have faced financial pressures from soaring diesel prices, which are used to run agricultural machinery. Diesel reached a record of $6.53 a gallon on Sept. 22, although it’s eased slightly since then, with average U.S. prices now at $6.32 a gallon, up from $3.62 a year ago, according to AAA data.
“This $8 billion investment will help bring certainty to our farmers during this harvest so they can continue to feed our nation,” U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said in a statement.
The USDA said the plan, called the Harvest Fuel Relief program, will pay farmers to cover part of their estimated losses for the 2026 crop year, using a standard formula. The calculation will use planted acreage reported to the Farm Service Agency, estimated production costs and crop yields and prices from the USDA’s World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report.

The agency said it will announce payment rates for major commodity crops in November, with details for other eligible products to follow. Farmers won’t need crop insurance to qualify and can prepare to apply by creating a Login.gov account linked to USDA.
The USDA estimates that net farm income will drop 2.6% this year as production costs rise 4.5%. Fuel and oil expenses alone are expected to jump nearly 30%, according to a September forecast by the agency.
