RALEIGH, N.C., May 31, 2019 – The USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) reminds North Carolina livestock producers of the availability of the Livestock Risk Protection (LRP) insurance for Fed Cattle, Feeder Cattle, and Swine. Livestock producers interested in LRP are encouraged to apply for the endorsement.

Crop insurance provides coverage to protect you against a declining market price during the insurance period. Additional information can be found on the Actuarial Information Browser page on the RMA website.

Crop insurance is sold and delivered solely through private crop insurance agents. A list of crop insurance agents is available at all USDA Service Centers and online at the RMA Agent Locator. Producers can use the RMA Cost Estimator to get a premium amount estimate of their insurance needs online. Learn more about crop insurance and the modern farm safety net at www.rma.usda.gov.
