Federal Crop Insurance and Disaster Assistance Programs for Big Island Growers
These workshops will inform participants about risk management, AGR-Lite, crop-specific USDA-RMA crop insurance products, and USDA-FSA disaster assistance programs that concern all Hawaii growers. Producers of all crops are encouraged to attend to learn about what applies to their crops, what it takes to qualify, and how to apply.
Producers are reminded of the linkage requirement where USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) disaster assistance programs will only be available to producers who have crop insurance or NAP coverage. Sign up deadlines for 2012 are December 1, 2011 for NAP and Dec 31 for most crop insurance.
