Residents are invited to participate in a virtual listening session with Agralytica, which is working under contract for U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Risk Management Agency, at 7 p.m. Wednesday via Zoom.
As part of the 2018 Farm Bill, Congress required feedback about improved crop insurance coverage options for farmers and ranchers selling to local food markets. This includes discussing how existing crop insurance programs can be improved, as well as exploring the possibility of a new crop insurance program.
Feedback will help identify potential changes and/or additions to insurance options for producers supplying local markets.
