CARMI, Ill. (RFD-TV) — As harvest continues across the country, crop insurance providers are finalizing projected harvest prices for insured crops. These figures play a key role in determining how policies perform and whether farmers will qualify for indemnities.
Brooks York with Agri-Sompo says this year’s focus is on where prices for major commodities stand heading into the final stretch. He explains that harvest prices are used to calculate actual revenues and compare them against coverage guarantees — a critical step in assessing potential losses.
York adds that lower discovery prices in some regions could trigger claims in certain areas of the country, which we might begin to see as the season wraps up.
