CARMI, ILL. (RFD-TV) — October’s close marks the end of the harvest price discovery period, a key factor in determining crop insurance guarantees for producers.
Brooks York with Agri-Sompo joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to discuss how this year’s pricing period played out and what it could mean for farmers heading into the end of the season.
In his interview with RFD-TV News, York also shared insight on whether the recent U.S.–China trade developments could have indirect impacts on crop insurance and producer confidence. He also noted that, as yield reports begin to come in from farms across the country, early results will help paint a clearer picture of how harvest outcomes compare to the latest USDA estimates.
