Stop paying farmers twice for the same loss
What the document says“Congress should prohibit this duplication by prohibiting farmers from receiving an ARC or PLC payment the same year they receive a crop insurance indemnity.”
The chapter states that farmers can receive support from the Agriculture Risk Coverage or Price Loss Coverage programs and from federal crop insurance for price declines and revenue shortfalls in the same year.
What the document actually says“Congress should prohibit this duplication by prohibiting farmers from receiving an ARC or PLC payment the same year they receive a crop insurance indemnity.”
A farmer can be paid twice for one bad year. Congress should stop that.
A farmer can claim from two programs at once. Both cover the same loss. The book says only one should pay.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
