HR 3904 United States House · 118th Congress

Crop Insurance for Future Farmers Act

HR 3904, the "Crop Insurance for Future Farmers Act," increases federal crop insurance subsidies for beginning farmers and ranchers. It revises the definition of a "beginning farmer" from 5 to 10 crop years of experience, allowing more new operators to qualify. The bill also establishes a tiered subsidy system: new farmers receive 15 percentage points higher subsidies for their first two years, 13 points for the third year, 11 points for the fourth year, and 10 points for years five through ten. This directly affects new agricultural producers by making crop insurance more affordable during their early years of operation.
