                 FEDERAL CROP INSURANCE CORPORATION

RR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE:

     We are here today at your invitation to provide  information

on our past and present reviews of the Federal Crop  Insurance

Corporation (FCIC) and its implementation of the Federal Crop

Insurance Act of 1980 (Public Law 96-365).  Over  the past couple

of years, we have issued several reports on various aspects of

the crop insurance program, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's

(USDA) primary disaster assistance program offered our Nation's

farmers.

     My statement today briefly discusses the  information con-

tained in our reports.  I will discuss in more detail the pre-

liminary results of our ongoing review of FCIC's expanded crop

insurance program.  We are analyzing these results and formulat-

ing proposed recommendations for improvement.  We have not yet

obtained FCIC's comments on our tentative findings or suggestions

for improvement but plan to do so shortly.
