insurance underwriters and the
federal Risk Management
Agency, which will make the
program easier for subscribers to
use. The state Department of
Agriculture has arranged to
have farmers’ crop insurance
billing statements reflect the
state’s 10 percent premium and
fees assistance. This will elimi
nate the need for farmers to wait
for reimbursement after paying
for their crop loss insurance.
“The Commonwealth’s ef
forts in making these funds
available quickly, highlighted
the Administration’s responsive
ness to Pennsylvania’s agricul
tural community. It has helped
farmers to protect their viability
and their capacity to produce
food and fiber,” Hayes said.

tives of the area producers and representatives of the agriculture industry. Jeffrey
Werner, president of the farm bureau, accepted the more than $1 million check, made
out to Lebanon county farmers for hay and crop loss and crop insurance assistance.
“I cannot have a complete year if I can’t spend a bit of time here at the Lebanon Fair,’’
said Agriculture Secretary Samuel Hayes. “It’s one of the great agricultural extravagan
zas of the year in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania.” Photo by Michelle Ranch
