Multiple Peril Crop Insurance

MPCI policies must be purchased prior to planting and cover loss of crop yields from all types of natural causes including drought, excessive moisture, freeze and disease. Newer coverage options combine yield protection and price protection to guard farmers against potential loss in revenue, whether due to low yields or changes in market price.

Under the Federal Crop Insurance Program’s unique public-private partnership, the USDA Risk Management Agency (RMA) authorizes the private companies writing MPCI policies. The private companies maintain the service side of the program – writing and reinsuring policies, marketing, adjusting and processing claims, etc. The RMA sets the rates that can be charged and determines which crops can be insured in different parts of the country.
