Crop Insurance Planning: Good Outlook for Unsold Grains, Base Acreage Adjustments Coming Next Year

Brooks York with Agrisompo joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report with some guidance on how producers can navigate their crop insurance claims for unsold grain crops.

CARMI, ILL. (RFD-TV) — With harvest complete for most farmers and crop insurance claims also drawing to an end, some farmers might find themselves with unsold bushels in the bin. Brooks York with AgriSompo joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report with some guidance on how producers can navigate their crop insurance claims on unsold grains.

In his interview with RFD-TV, York addressed whether crop insurance offers any protection from this point forward on a crop that has already been harvested. He also discussed the base acreage adjustments farmers will be able to make in the future, and how those changes can affect farmers’ crop insurance planning.

Finally, York discussed how the most recent November WASDE report, released by the USDA on Friday after the government shutdown ended, has since impacted markets.
