Delayed Planting, Reduced Yield and Crop Insurance

Steady rains throughout many parts of Vermont have caused delays for farms of all types. USDA Risk Management Agency (RMA) crop insurance products can adjust for delayed plantings or plantings completely prevented under certain circumstances. See this attached Prevented Planting Information Sheet that explains how crop insurance adjusts for prevented planting.
