There is a strong consensus among lawmakers that crop insurance should be enhanced and serve as the centerpiece of the farm safety net moving forward, which underscores the success the policy has seen over the years and the popularity it enjoys among farmers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since crop insurance&#8217;s rise to prominence, overall farm policy spending has gone down because farmers and private insurers help shoulder risk that was otherwise borne by taxpayers. In addition, rural economies have benefited because crop insurance makes sure farmers quickly and accurately receive the help then they need it the most.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also applaud conferees for rejecting multiple attempts to minimize crop insurance&#8217;s effectiveness by making it more difficult for all farmers to obtain a key risk management tool. The Farm Bill is now one step closer to completion and we urge the House and Senate to approve the farm bill expeditiously. Farmers need the peace of mind provided by a 5-year farm bill and a vibrant crop insurance infrastructure to ensure that this nation\u2019s agriculture sector remains vibrant and productive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">###<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contact: Laurie Langstraat, NCIS \u2013 913-685-2767 (January 28, 2014) \u2013 American Association of Crop Insurers, Crop Insurance and Reinsurance Bureau and National Crop Insurance Services, in response to the Farm [&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":[19,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ncis-responds","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
