Products will be purchased from IL-EATS growers and producers at the price ranges listed in Illinois Department of Human Services' Fair Market Value List. This list aims to ensure a fair and consistent price for Illinois farmers selling their products to IL-EATS. Prices are estimated to be wholesale or better. Growers and producers must receive at least the minimum Fair Market Value price for their product but may request a higher value in the range to offset costs associated with:
Transportation
Organic/regenerative/humane production practices
Packaging
Processing
Aggregating
Fair Market Value prices will not change for the duration of IL-EATS, except in extreme market changes. New products will be added as needed.
