³ CAT Endorsement (15-cat) attaches to specific crop provisions when CAT coverage is selected by the insured.

⁴ Common Crop Policy Basic Provisions (11-br) apply with the crop provisions.

⁵ The CAT coverage offered under ARPI is equivalent to the CAT coverage previously offered under the Group Risk Plan (GRP) which ARPI is replacing. Group coverage is required to be ‘comparable coverage’ to an individual plan, for which CAT is statutorily defined as 50 percent of yield and 55 percent of price. RMA has determined that comparable area-based coverage is 65 percent of yield and 45 percent of price.
