Legal Ledger Brief: New USDA Micro Farm policy

USDA’s Risk Management Agency is issuing a new Micro Farm policy to provide additional insurance options for small-scale producers.

The policy is offered through Whole-Farm Revenue Protection and includes eligibility for producers who have a farm operation that earns $100,000 or less, or for carryover insureds, an average revenue of $125,000 or less.

The policy is available for the 2022 crop year, and sales closing dates are Jan. 31, Feb. 28 or March 15 depending on the producer’s county.
