Risk Management Agency

The Risk Management Agency (RMA) is a part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that helps farmers manage the risks associated with their crops and livestock. It provides insurance programs that protect farmers from financial losses due to events like droughts, floods, or market fluctuations. By offering these safety nets, the RMA aims to stabilize farm incomes and promote a reliable food supply. Essentially, it supports farmers in safeguarding their investments and ensuring their livelihoods amidst uncertainties in agriculture.
