RMA's crop insurance program is designed to:
- help producers when they need it the most;
- provide a safety net compatible with international trade commitments;
- create products and services that are market driven;
- harness the strengths of both the public and private sectors; and
- reflect the diversity of the farm sector in its outreach activities and programs.
Sales closing dates can vary by crop, state, and county, so producers should
consult a crop insurance agent to discuss their options.
