Expansion of agricultural insurance: new crops and subsidy changes

The act extends mandatory agricultural insurance to new crops, including herbs and legumes. The subsidy system for insurance premiums changes, especially for orchards and strawberries. Farmers gain broader protection against natural disasters but must be careful about conditions when using insurance intermediaries.
Key points
New crops covered by insurance: sunflower, phacelia, mustard, flax, hemp, herbs, and small- and large-seeded legumes (including soy).
Higher subsidies for orchard and strawberry insurance: up to 65% of premium, but with tariff rate limits (20-25% depending on land class).
Mandatory insurance for farmers receiving direct payments: against flood, drought, hail, winter damage, and spring frosts.
Caution with intermediary contracts: if their commission exceeds 3% of premium, the subsidy for orchards and strawberries will be reduced.
Compensation for orchard damage may be reduced by up to 35%, while other crops only by 10%.
