Background

The Risk Management Agency (RMA) uses fertilizer prices posted by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME) to establish guarantees and determine indemnities under the Margin Protection (MP) Plan of Insurance. The CME has recently discontinued posting swaps prices for Urea (as of January 2020) and Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) (following the March 2020 contract). As a result of the change in available price data, RMA is updating the MP price provisions to utilize futures prices for Urea and DAP.
