AI Summary
This bill, the Feed Emergency Enhancement During Disasters with Cover Crops Act of 2021 (FEEDD Act of 2021), amends the Federal Crop Insurance Act to modify prevented planting coverage. Specifically, it allows producers to plant a second crop, such as a cover crop, on the same acreage for harvest in the same crop year and collect an indemnity payment equal to 100% of the prevented planting guarantee for the first crop if certain conditions are met, such as the second crop being used for animal feed. The bill also establishes a regional harvest date, after which the Secretary of Agriculture cannot reduce the indemnity payment to producers who hay, graze, or chop the cover crops on prevented planting acres.
