  "account": "President Donald Trump announced on Monday the launch of a $8 billion support program for farmers to alleviate the burden of rising diesel costs during the harvest season. The USDA will provide one-time payments to American farmers through the Farm Service Agency to cover a portion of estimated losses during the 2026 crop year. Trump made the announcement in Kansas as he campaigns for the midterm elections, where his party's control of Congress is at stake. The program aims to offer proportional support to farmers using a standardized formula, mitigating temporary market disruptions and increased input costs.",
