USDA Expanding Crop Insurance Options for Specialty and Organic Growers

USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) announced that it is expanding crop insurance options for specialty and organic growers by allowing enterprise units by organic farming practice, adding enterprise unit eligibility for several crops, and making additional policy updates. These updates, which are detailed online, are effective beginning with the 2025 crop year. RMA is continuing to explore ways to improve risk management tools for specialty crop producers and will be announcing additional program enhancements later this summer.
