The public sector’s strengths benefit the crop insurance program in many ways. As a regulator, we ensure the fairness of policies and set the rules. We also make sure that policy rates are accurate and just—and that there’s crop insurance options for all producers, large and small.
RMA also forms partnerships to provide education and outreach programs, especially reaching out to underserved farmers and ranchers around the country. Over the past 10 years, RMA has awarded $124 million for such partnerships.
