 The Department of Agriculture of the state of Indiana is distributing $4 million assigned as Federal funding under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES) to 41 local meat processing businesses. According to Lieutenant Governor Suzanne Crouch, the grants must be matched with a 50 percent cash requirement. This translates to approximately $200,000 for each of the plants. It is intended that the funding will be used to promote worker safety, increase slaughter volume or other operational needs.
