Projected Tradeoff Between 2019 ARC and PLC
Since official FSA data has not yet been released to determine benchmarks for the ARC-CO program, this spreadsheet uses SCO (crop insurance) data to estimate the 2019/2020 ARC-CO guarantee in each county for each crop. This gives producers an initial picture of when ARC-CO and PLC payments will kick in at different MYA prices. Note: An estimate is given for irrigated and dryland guarantees in each county. Some counties will have a combined ARC-CO guarantee that cannot be estimated at this time. |
