On the recordMarch 28, 1996
section 193(a)(2) of this bill is intended to allow delinkage of the purchase of catastrophic crop insurance for all crops including forage harvested in 1996 and beyond. Producers of forage crops harvested in 1996 should be able to participate in all USDA programs without purchasing catastrophic crop insurance, regardless of when that forage crop was planted. There was no intent to exclude forage from these delinkage provisions and the Secretary should interpret section 193(a)(2) as such.
