Farmers who pay premiums would be eligible for the insurance with payouts differing from the premium amount depending on crop outcomes. If crops do well they lose the premium difference. if they fail they may receive higher payments from the crop insurance fund. The plan would take effect next year, not the current year, as drought damages crops across the plains and southeastern states.
