The Risk Management Agency is seeking feedback to consider possible changes to prevented planting. “One is the harvest price option,” said RMA Administrator Marcia Bunger. “Currently, with prevent plant the only price that is applicable is the spring price, but much like the counterparts of those acres that are being harvested, we are wanting feedback on whether to allow the prevent plant payment calculation to be based upon the higher of the projected price or the harvest price.” Another topic being addressed is the 1-in-4 rule. which requires planting in at least one of the last four years to be eligible for PP. Listening sessions are planned throughout the country, including one in West Fargo in August.
