USDA Simplifies Application Process for Noninsured Crops for Underserved Producers; Improves Risk Management Accessibility Earlier this year, the Farm Service Agency (FSA) made several updates to disaster assistance programs to give more farmers, ranchers, and Tribes equitable access to recovery programs. FSA simplified the application process for the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) for underserved producers. This important policy change opens the door to risk management options for producers who may not have previously known about or been able to obtain coverage to protect their crops. NAP provides financial assistance to producers of noninsurable crops when natural disaster events cause low yields, loss of inventory, or prevented planting. |
