The following tables provide market penetration by categories of Fruits/Nuts and Vegetables. RMA 

and National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Specialty Crop Comparisons Tables follow. These 

tables establish current participation rates for specialty crops. RMA acres are calculated using both 

CAT and buy-up level participation. The NASS acres used were the complete population of cropped 

acres. In rare instances, RMA acres exceed NASS acres, as seen in the specific state and crop tables

located below.
