Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP): provides compensation to livestock producers for mortality and loss of value as a result of weather, disease, and wild animal attacks. Application is made through the local FSA office. Producers must file a notice of loss within 30 days of the losses and must file for payment within 60 days after the end of the calendar year.
