USDA\u2019s Risk Management Agency released its final draft of the Standard Reinsurance Agreement (SRA) on June 10, 2010.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe negotiated this contract in good faith with USDA and we are frustrated that our concerns for the financial stability of this 30-year program were not adequately addressed,\u201d said Bob Parkerson, President of National Crop Insurance Services.<\/p>\n<p>The industry is still experiencing the $6.4 billion cuts that came out of the 2008 Farm Bill and will soon face nine months of no income as part of these cuts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow we have to figure out how an additional $6 billion decrease will not seriously undermine the industry\u2019s ability to effectively deliver this program,\u201d said Parkerson.\u00a0 \u201cUnfortunately, USDA seems to have lost sight that this program is in place to provide a sound financial risk management tool for America\u2019s farmers and ranchers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some of USDA\u2019s proposed financial terms are far more complex than would appear from its side-by-side comparison released June 10th and will take some time to analyze.<br \/>\nThe industry is also disappointed that USDA used a \u201cfinal\u201d draft to introduce significant terms that did not appear in the first and second drafts, which apparently USDA plans to implement without full industry review and negotiation.<\/p>\n<p>Companies are evaluating their positions and RMA representatives have committed to meet with industry representatives in Kansas City on June 18th.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope continuing dialogue and the meeting on Friday will establish a foundation for constructive changes to this latest version of the SRA,\u201d said Parkerson.\u00a0 \u201cWhile the new SRA creates new financial risks and severely undermines the stability of the crop insurance industry, the crop insurance companies remain dedicated and focused on providing high quality service to America\u2019s farmers and ranchers.\u201d<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">###<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 14, 2010 Industry Hopeful that Continued Negotiations will Protect the Key Safety Net for America\u2019s Farmers and Ranchers OVERLAND PARK, KAN\u2026The crop insurance industry is surprised [&hellip;]<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-449","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-releases"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
