Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program (US Farm Service Agency Regulation) (FSA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library

Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program (US Farm Service Agency Regulation) (FSA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program (US Farm Service Agency Regulation) (FSA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This rule implements specific requirements for the new Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program (SURE) authorized by the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (the 2008 Farm Bill). SURE provides disaster assistance to eligible participants who have experienced qualifying crop production losses, or crop quality losses, or both, occurring in crop year 2008 through September 30, 2011. All crops for which crop insurance or noninsured crop disaster assistance program (NAP) coverage is available are eligible crops for SURE. To be eligible for SURE payments, participants must meet a risk management purchase requirement, with some exceptions, and have suffered a qualifying loss due to disaster. A qualifying loss is a loss of at least 10 percent of a crop of economic significance on a participant's farm in a disaster county (a county for which a Secretarial disaster declaration has been issued or a county contiguous to such a county), or on a participant's farm with an overall loss greater than 50 percent of normal production (expected revenue for all crops on the farm) due to disaster. This rule specifies how a qualifying loss is determined, how SURE payments are calculated, and how and when participants may apply for payment.
