Risk Management Tool for Specialty and Smaller Producers

The Risk Management Agency knows that finding the right risk management tools for specialty crops and smaller-scale farmers can be overwhelming. That’s why the RMA created a new searchable directory of crop insurance agents who have experience selling Whole Farm Revenue Protection and Micro Farm policies.

With 1,135 crop insurance agents listed and providing coverage in all 50 states, the process of finding the “right risk management fit” got easier.

“The new tool is part of RMA’s efforts to make crop insurance more equitable and accessible for all producers,” says RMA Administrator Marcia Bunger. “Whole Farm Revenue Protection and Micro Farm are two of the most comprehensive risk management plans available, and they are especially important to specialty crop, organic, urban, and direct-market producers.”

The tool also includes regional specialists located in each of the RMA’s regional offices. Specialty crop producers and small-scale producers can go to rma.usda.gov for more information.
