Bill overview
The Flood Insurance for Farmers Act of 2025 aims to improve access to flood insurance for agricultural structures located in special flood hazard zones. It allows for variances from standard floodproofing or elevation requirements for these structures, provided specific criteria are met, such as the structure being new or substantially damaged and not located in certain high-risk areas. The bill also adjusts premium rates for structures with variances to be comparable to those for dry floodproofed structures and introduces provisions for umbrella insurance coverage for certain properties, including agricultural land.
