          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Crawfish Recovery Assistance from Weather Disasters And Droughts Act or the CRAWDAD Act&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill modifies access to the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honey Bees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program (ELAP) and the Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP).&amp;nbsp;ELAP and LFP are Farm Service Agency (FSA) administered programs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill expands coverage under ELAP for losses caused by adverse weather or drought. The bill includes under ELAP the loss of a crawfish harvest due to adverse weather or drought. (ELAP provides payments to producers of livestock, honey bees, and farm-raised fish as compensation for losses due to disease, adverse weather, feed or water shortages, or other conditions that are not covered under other programs.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The FSA must&amp;nbsp;establish ELAP documentation standards for (1) collecting data, (2) the production of crawfish,&amp;nbsp;and (3) defining loss conditions due to drought.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill also specifies that eligibility under  LFP for livestock producers applies to producers with weaned or unweaned livestock.&amp;nbsp;(LFP makes payments to eligible livestock producers who have suffered grazing losses on drought-affected pastureland, including cropland planted specifically for grazing. Currently, unweaned livestock are not eligible for the program.)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;!--tinycomments|2.1|data:application/json;base64,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
