FSA is strengthening the farm safety net thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts Act that adds up to 30 million new base acres nationwide. Starting June 1, landowners can update and increase base acres in preparation for enrollment in the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) programs for the 2026 and future crop years.

Landowners have until Aug. 31, 2026, to review and consider base acre increases on farms enrolled in ARC or PLC. https://www.fsa.usda.gov/news-events/news/05-26-2026/usda-announces-base-acre-increase-opportunity-agriculture-risk-price

Consider adding hail and wind endorsements to your existing Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) policies. These endorsements offer additional protection specifically against damage caused by hailstorms and strong winds, which can be unpredictable and devastating.

Hail and wind endorsements are designed to cover losses that your standard MPCI policy might not fully address, providing you with comprehensive coverage.
