What the document says
“Indemnity payments to an eligible producer on a farm under paragraph (1)(A) shall be made at a rate of 100 percent of the market value of the affected livestock on the applicable date, as determined by the Secretary.”
The section strikes paragraph (2) of section 1501(b) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9081(b)) and inserts a new one under which indemnity payments for losses due to predation are made at 100 percent of the market value of the affected livestock on the applicable date.
What the document actually says
“Indemnity payments to an eligible producer on a farm under paragraph (1)(A) shall be made at a rate of 100 percent of the market value of the affected livestock on the applicable date, as determined by the Secretary.”
That sentence, in plain words
An animal lost to a predator is paid in full. The rate is 100 percent of what it was worth. The Secretary works out that value.
What this is about
A predator is an animal that kills livestock. The value used is the one on a set date. That date is fixed by another rule in this part.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
