Group Risk Plan of Insurance

The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) proposes to add regulations to provide for the operation of an alternative risk management tool to be known as the Group Risk Plan of Insurance (GRP). This plan will insure against the widespread loss of production of certain crops in a county. It is intended primarily for use by those producers whose yields tend to follow the county average yield. GRP pays only when the average yield of the entire county drops below the expected county yield for the insured crop as set by the FCIC. Payment is based on the percentage of decline in a county or area wide yield below the insured's trigger yield. The insured need not have a loss to collect an indemnity. Alternately, the insured may have a loss and not collect an indemnity.
