Notwithstanding subparagraph (A), in the case of the supplemental coverage option described in paragraph (3)(B), the Corporation shall offer producers the opportunity to purchase coverage in combination with a policy or plan of insurance offered under this subtitle that would allow indemnities to be paid to a producer equal to a part of the deductible under the policy or plan of insurance— at a county-wide level to the fullest extent practicable; or in counties that lack sufficient data, on the basis of such larger geographical area as the Corporation determines to provide sufficient data for purposes of providing the coverage. Coverage offered under paragraph (3)(B) and clause
(i)shall be triggered only if the losses in the area exceed 10 percent of normal levels (as determined by the Corporation). Subject to the trigger described in clause (ii), coverage offered under paragraph (3)(B) and clause
(i)shall not exceed the difference between— 90 percent; and the coverage level selected by the producer for the underlying policy or plan of insurance. Crops for which the producer has elected under section 1107(c)(1) of the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013 to receive revenue loss coverage and acres that are enrolled in the stacked income protection plan under section 508B shall not be eligible for supplemental coverage under this subparagraph. Notwithstanding subsection (d), the premium for coverage offered under paragraph (3)(B) and clause
(i)shall— be sufficient to cover anticipated losses and a reasonable reserve; and include an amount for operating and administrative expenses established in accordance with subsection (k)(4)(F). .

The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation shall begin to provide additional coverage based on an individual yield and loss basis, supplemented with coverage based on an area yield and loss basis, not later than for the 2014 crop year.
