address to provide a response. The
identification and quotation of the
specific provision in the 1998 Research
Act or regulations allows FCIC to
research and respond to the specific
identified provision. The respondent’s
detailed interpretation of the regulation
is required to comply with the
requirements of Sec. 533 of the 1998
Research Act and to clarify the
boundaries of the request to FCIC. If the

Risk Management Agency
Title: Request for Applications for
Research Partnerships.
OMB Control Number: 0563–0065.
Summary of Collection: The Federal
Crop Insurance Act of 2002 authorizes
the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation
to enter into partnerships with public
and private entities for the purpose of
increasing the availability of risk
management tools for producers of
agricultural commodities. The Risk
Management Agency (RMA) has
developed procedures for the
preparation, submission and evaluation
of applications.
Need and Use of the Information:
RMA and a review panel of independent
reviewers will use the information to
determine applicant eligibility and to
evaluate the applications. The
qualifying applicants will be scored on
each of five criteria: Research objectives;
RMA involvement/non-financial
benefits; research methodology,
development, and implementation;
management; and bonus points for
proposals that address RMA priorities
and/or are submitted by applicants
representing a geographically diverse
area. Scores are totaled, listed in rank
order and are used for the final decision
on awards. If the information is not
collected, the consequences would be a
missed opportunity to improve and or
develop new risk management tools for
agricultural producers. The impact
would affect those segments of
agriculture lacking access to existing
risk management tools.
