Thanks @GOPMajorityWhip and @HouseAgGOP for all the hard work that went into PASSING the 2026 Farm Bill out of the House. We are proud to #ProtectCropInsurance with you!
This week, we hosted a Farm Bill Roundtable with members, stakeholders, and farmers to discuss the pressing need for updated farm legislation, ending with @HouseGOP passing the Farm Bill. Our farm and rural families are the backbone of our country, and it’s high time Congress acts to bring these folks much-needed relief.

Farmers do not buy crop insurance for a payout. They buy it as a safety net so they can recover from disaster and keep farming. That stability matters far beyond the farm. Hear real stories, from real farmers: cropinsuranceinamerica.org/r…

How the Quality Loss Option (QL) Works When QL is elected, you can substitute your pre-quality adjusted production amount for both the 2021 and 2023 crop years. In this example, the QL increases your actual production history (APH) from 80 bushels/acre to 100 bushels/acre.
