AI Summary
This bill tells the federal crop insurance program to study and design an insurance option for mushroom growers. The coverage could protect either the amount of mushrooms produced or the money earned from them, depending on what the research shows. The program must deliver a report to Congress within one year that explains what it learned and any recommendations to move forward.
Key points:
- Who is affected: mushroom farmers and producers
- What changes: research and development to create a mushroom insurance policy; “policy” can mean a plan of insurance and related materials
- When: a report is due within one year of the law taking effect
- What it doesn’t do yet: it does not start coverage right away; it begins the research needed to build that coverage
