Actual Production History

The Federal Crop Insurance Act (Act) allows developers of approved privately-developed crop insurance products (“508(h) products”) to maintain their 508(h) products and charge a user fee to approved insurance providers (AIP) that elect to sell the policy. Section 522(b)(4)(D)(ii) of the Act and 7 C.F.R. 400.712(l)(5) provide that the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) Board of Directors (Board) will determine the reasonableness and approve the amount of user fee that is payable to the developer by the AIP.

Background

Approved Insurance Providers (AIPs) are required to review eligible crop insurance contracts identified by the criteria in Appendix IV of the Standard Reinsurance Agreement or as otherwise specified by the Risk Management Agency (RMA). These include Actual Production History (APH) reviews. The Common Crop Insurance Policy Basic Provisions (BP) provides, in part, that if the insured does not have written verifiable records to support the information on the production report, the insured will receive an assigned yield in their APH.
