Pomegranate Crop Insurance Changes Effective for the 2024 and Succeeding Crop Years

On May 18, 2023, the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation Board of Directors approved revisions to the Pomegranate crop insurance program under section 508(h) of the Federal Crop Insurance Act. Beginning with the 2024 crop year, optional units will be available by early and late types.

The following documents will be available by close of business today on the Risk Management Agency (RMA) website at www.rma.usda.gov:

  • Pomegranate Crop Provisions (24-0467)
  • Pomegranate Insurance Standards Handbook (20670U)

Approved insurance providers must notify policyholders of these changes at least 30 days prior to the cancellation date, as required by the policy.

Interested producers should contact a crop insurance agent for further information. A list of agents can be found on the RMA website at www.rma.usda.gov/InformationTools/Agent-Locator. DISPOSAL DATE: December 31, 2023
