NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD-TV) — As the 2025 crop insurance year enters its final month, producers across the country are already turning their attention to the next growing season. With many final tasks still underway, insurance agents are monitoring what remains to be done before the year officially closes.
Brooks York with AgriSompo joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to offer an update on what agents are prioritizing as the calendar year winds down. In his conversation with RFD-TV News, York discussed the actions agents still need to complete to wrap up 2025 and what the industry is focused on as business planning for this year’s harvest comes to an end.
York also addressed the industry’s “wish list” heading into the Christmas season, sharing what crop insurance professionals would most like to see as they move toward the upcoming year.
