A National Association of State Departments of Agriculture task force will review producer protections under both programs. The issue arose after a federal rule said operators cannot be required to hold both licenses. The concern is loss of state coverage under indemnity laws. One year ago, $700,000 was paid to Iowa producers for Crestland Co-op shortfalls in Creston.
