In accordance with Section 15 of the ARPI Crop Provisions, Section 14 of the MP Crop Provisions and Section 10 of the SCO Endorsement, approved final county yields, final county revenues, harvest revenues and harvest margins for the 2018/2019 crop year will be available by close of business today in the following formats:

In some situations, for SCO, the production area used to establish the expected yield did not have any final reported yields. In these instances, the Risk Management Agency (RMA) determined final county yields in accordance with the SCO Endorsement. The attachment identifies the source of the final county yield determination in the affected counties.

In some situations, for ARPI and MP, the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) was unable to publish a county estimate on the same basis as the offer available. Where NASS was unable to publish a county estimate, RMA determined the final county yield in accordance with the ARPI and MP basic provisions. The attachment identifies the RMA basis for final county yield determination in the affected counties with policies.
