Tool

Pasture, Rangeland, Forage Support Tool

This tool can help insurance providers analyze a grower’s insurance options. The analyst may consider policy cost, potential indemnities, and subsidies available from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for targeted two-month windows throughout the calendar year.

The tool is intended to provide users with additional information of how the Pasture, Rangeland, Forage insurance program correlates to production risk. For example, a user may know his or her production records for a given year. With the decision tool, they can select that year and study how the index would have responded.
