Federal Crop Insurance Corporation January 18, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) proposes to amend the Common Crop Insurance Regulations; Dry Pea Crop Insurance Provisions to include the insurability of additional types of dry peas, to offer winter coverage, to allow replanting payments, and to make chickpeas insurable under the Dry Pea Crop Provisions rather than the Dry Bean Crop Provisions. The intended effect of this action is to provide policy changes, to clarify existing policy provisions to better meet the needs of the producers, and to reduce vulnerability to program fraud, waste, and abuse. The changes will apply for the 2009 and succeeding crop years.
