FARMER Act of 2025
This bill increases government support for crop insurance premiums for certain farm insurance plans. It raises the government's share to 77% for higher coverage levels and 68% for lower coverage levels under revenue or yield protection plans using enterprise or whole-farm units - up from previous rates. It also adjusts coverage requirements (lowering the minimum from 14% to 10% for some options) and increases premium subsidies for supplemental coverage from 65% to 80%. The bill requires a study on expanding supplemental coverage to larger counties, with a report due within a year of enactment.
