An Example for a RA Insured Iowa Corn Grower |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Harvest Price will be multiplied times the grower’s corn yield in
2003. A grower with an 143 bushel APH x 70% coverage X $2.370 harvest
price would have had a revenue guarantee of $242.24. If this grower
produced 50 bushels, then based on today's price of $2.370 the revenue
to count would be $118.50 and the indemnity payment would be the
difference between the revenue to count and the revenue guarantee for
gross indemnity payment of $123.74 (before premium deduction). |
