Severe drought conditions have damaged crops across the nation, especially in the West and the High Plains. The Risk Management Agency (RMA) recognizes the need for authorizing emergency procedures to streamline and accelerate the adjustment of losses and issuance of indemnity payments to insured producers in the drought-impacted areas.
Widespread weather events such as flooding, excessive rainfall, and drought over recent years have resulted in significant prevented planting claims under the Federal crop insurance program. Given these extreme weather patterns and the need to provide producers ample opportunities to protect the nation’s natural resources, the Risk Management Agency has re-evaluated the interaction between cover crops and the Federal crop insurance program.
