Background
Compliance has identified instances of 1st crop/2nd crop potential abuse where agents have misapplied differences in double cropping requirements under the Common Crop Insurance Basic Provisions (CCIP Basic Provisions) and Rainfall and Vegetation Index Plan Common Policy (20-RI/VI) in their sales and marketing practices. Specifically, we found several instances where agents placed policies for the same policyholder with two different Approved Insurance Providers (AIPs) to avoid detection.
