USDA Introduces New Revenue Protection Options for Forage Producers in 12 States

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is expanding crop insurance coverage options to include revenue protection for forage producers in 12 states, effective for the 2027 crop year. This initiative, part of the Department's "Farmers First" efforts, aims to protect against both yield losses and price declines due to market changes, offering producers options like Yield Protection, Revenue Protection, and Revenue Protection with Harvest Price Exclusions.
