Rainbow Valley Citrus Corp. v. Federal Crop Insurance Corp‪.‬

HUFSTEDLER, Circuit Judge: Plaintiffs, who are three citrus growers in the Rainbow Valley area of Maricopa County, Arizona, filed an action challenging a decision by the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) to discontinue citrus insurance in the Rainbow Valley area. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the defendant. On appeal plaintiffs contend that in discontinuing insurance in Rainbow Valley without giving plaintiffs prior notice or an opportunity to be heard, the FCIC violated (1) the rule-making requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. § 553), or (2) the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm.
