JEANBARTON Ambassadors organize beef fitting clinic COURTESYPHOTO Forty 4-H and FFA members attended the Beef Fitting Clinic organized by Tehama County Beef Ambassadors Emyli Palmer, Kayla McGiffin and Danielle Mueller at the Tehama District Fairground. WASHINGTON Agriculture Deputy Secretary Krysta Harden announced recently that Whole-Farm Revenue Protection insurance will be available in every county in the nation in 2016. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is also making changes to the pol- icy to help farmers and ranchers with diversified crops including beginning, organic, and fruit and vege- table growers, better access Whole-Farm Revenue Pro- tection. "Whole-Farm Rev- enue Protection insurance allows producers who have previously had limited ac- cess to a risk management safety net, to insure all of the commodities on their farm at once instead of one commodity at a time," said Harden. "That gives them the option of embracing more crop diversity on their farm and helps support the production of a wider vari- ety of foods." USDA's Risk Manage- ment Agency (RMA) in- troduced the Whole-Farm Revenue Protection pilot program for a majority of counties in the 2015 insur- ance year. Starting with the 2016 insurance year, the new program will be avail- able in all counties in the United States, a first for the federal crop insurance pro- gram. USDA also provided ad- ditional flexibility to pro- ducers by making the fol- lowing changes, including: Beginning Farmers and Ranchers — RMA makes it easier for more beginning farmers and ranchers to participate in the program by reducing the required re- cords from five to three his- torical years, plus farming records from the past year. Additionally, any beginning farmer and rancher may qualify by using the for- mer farm operator's federal farm tax records if the be- ginning farmer or rancher assumes at least 90 percent of the farm operation.
