In Washington, the Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced improvements to the camelina pilot crop insurance program for the 2025 and succeeding crop years. USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) is expanding coverage options by allowing enterprise units and increasing maximum coverage levels. In addition, RMA is aligning planting dates with winter wheat for the Southern Plains.
The following expanded coverage options will take effect starting with the 2025 crop year:
· Expanding enterprise units to camelina
· Increasing the maximum allowable coverage level from 65% to 85%, in 5% increments
· Revising camelina plating dates in the Southern Plains region to match planting dates for winter wheat
