Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program Enhancement Act of 2023
The Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program Enhancement Act of 2023 removes a longstanding exclusion that previously prevented crops and grasses used for grazing from receiving disaster aid. This change allows farmers who grow forage crops and grasses for livestock grazing to access program benefits if their crops are damaged by natural disasters like droughts or floods. The bill amends two specific sections of the existing law to eliminate the exclusion, making grazing crops eligible under the program. Regulations implementing this change must be issued by the Secretary of Agriculture within 90 days of the bill's enactment.
