Did you know that 2024 marks the 30-year anniversary of the 1994 Crop Insurance Reform Act? This means crop insurance has been expanding and adapting to the risk management needs of U.S. agriculture for three decades now.
Given this important 30-year anniversary, National Crop Insurance Services (NCIS) and its president, Tom Zacharias, took some time to reflect on the program’s many accomplishments and address common criticisms in the latest episode of Keep America Growing – a short and sweet podcast all about crop insurance.
This episode explains how the modern-day crop insurance program is continuously reforming to respond to the changing environment of U.S. agriculture – from helping farmers combat climate and improve conservation practices to supporting underserved communities. Plus, visit CropInsuranceInAmerica.org to catch up on all previous podcast episodes and find more news and updates from NCIS.
