About RMA:
The role of USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) is to help producers manage their business risks through effective, market-based risk management solutions. RMA’s mission is to promote, support, and regulate sound risk management solutions to preserve and strengthen the economic stability of America’s agricultural producers.
As part of this mission, RMA operates and manages the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC). RMA was created in 1996; the FCIC was founded in 1938. Nevada Targeted States Risk Management Education focuses on increasing producer awareness and understanding of current Federal crop/livestock and revenue insurance programs, as well as educating producers on agricultural risks they face daily.
