Secretary Naig Encourages Iowa Farmers to Plant Fall Cover Crops to Save Money on Crop Insurance

Iowa farmers planting eligible cover crops this fall can seek a $5-per-acre reduction in 2027 crop-insurance premiums. Enrollment runs December 1 through January 22, 2027. Acres receiving other specified state or NRCS cost-share assistance do not qualify, and some insurance policies are excluded; farmers should check the program rules and their policy with their insurance agent.
