SUBJECT:   Crop Revenue Coverage (CRC) and FCI-33 Supplement
          
ISSUE:
          
The procedure for calculating CRC premium when a County Actuarial Table FCI-33 
Supplement applies, is not defined.
          
ACTION:
          
The CRC premium calculation procedure for FCI-33 Supplement special rate 
listings shall be as set forth below:
          
1) Determine the FCI-33 Supplement special base rate (this is the 75 percent 
   coverage level  base rate).
          
2) Apply the rate differential to adjust the special base rate to the 
   appropriate coverage level.  (This special base rate will replace the MPCI 
   base rate in all CRC premium calculations).
          
3) Use the CRC rate factor for the coverage level and R-span in which the 
   yield falls.
          
4) All other CRC premium calculations apply.
          
Note:  It must be determined that the legal description or insured is not on 
       the Non Standard Classification System before proceeding.
