Popcorn Revenue Program for the 2017 Crop Year
- Background

The Popcorn Revenue Program was implemented beginning with the 2012 crop year. Several minor corrections have been made for the 2017 crop year including correcting paragraph references and replacing the word “a” with the word “the”. Additionally, the Prevented Planting section is revised to state that the prevented planting coverage levels will be contained in the actuarial documents along with an option for additional prevented planting coverage levels, if offered in the actuarial documents.
- Action

The following Popcorn Revenue Program materials will be available by close of business today and may be accessed on the RMA Web site: http://www.rma.usda.gov.
- Popcorn Revenue Crop Provisions
