Background

The Area Risk Protection Insurance (ARPI) Regulations in 7 CFR 407 were revised by a final rule published in the Federal Register on June 30, 2021 (86 FR 34606-34611). That final rule inadvertently failed to revise the applicable crop year in the introductory text of the ARPI policy. 2022 is the effective crop year. This document makes that correction.
