Annual Forage
The Rainfall Index (RI) - Annual Forage (AF) is a federally-reinsured pilot program that provides coverage for
acreage planted annually to forage, used for grazing or as hay for livestock.
Recent Changes
- Farmers/ranchers are allowed to insure the acres they choose and are not required to insure 100% of their insurable acres.
- The program design was modified from four growing seasons to twelve.
- The Acreage Reporting Date (ARD) was moved to the fifth day of the month after the month of planting, creating twelve ARDs.
- Planting dates were added to designate the planting month and corresponding ARD.
- The RI Basic Provisions were updated to incorporate existing guidance on the record requirements in double cropping situations when one of the crops follow a different plan of insurance.
- Dual Use Option is now available for Growing Seasons (GS) one through four.
