The new premium rate plan, as explained by Mr. Lee is that premium prem-ium rates of all farms in the county having the same yield will be averaged, and this rate will then apply to all farms having that yield, except where local conditions con-ditions indicate that hazards on a single farm or group of farms arc different from those of the county as a whole. This plan will eliminate elimin-ate accidental differences in rates and will place all farms with the same yields on an equitable basis.
