    Federal Crop Insurance Program Expands in 2016 and 2017 to Cover More Organic Crops

    Paul Goeringer and, Howard Leathers (July, 2016)

    Summary

    Organic agriculture represents one of the fastest growing segments of U.S. agriculture (USDA-RMA). With this in mind, the USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) continues to expand crop insurance options for organic growers. In 2016 and 2017, organic producers in Maryland will see additional crops with organic crop insurance options. Increasing crop insurance options will allow this segment of producers new opportunities to manage their risks.
