CIRB Highlights Crop Insurance Industry Resilience

Cindy Zimmerman

Resilience is the theme for the 2022 Crop Insurance and Reinsurance Bureau annual meeting and part of being resilient means adapting quickly to change.

“As an industry, we have a desire to meet the needs of the farmers out there,” said Crop Risk Services President and CEO Brian Young, who serves as acting chair for CIRB. “So, it’s really trying to understand what are those needs, what’s changing, and how can we adapt to that.”

Young says it is already time to be talking about the 2023 Farm Bill. “You have a lot of newer members of Congress maybe have not been through a farm bill, so there’s an education component,” he said. “We want to make sure we are keeping an eye on what issues are there.”
